Kevin Colbert expects Ben Roethlisberger to end his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Colbert said Monday he couldn't see “any circumstance that Ben won't end his career here (in Pittsburgh)."

Roethlisberger is making $12.1 million this season with a salary cap hit of $18.895 million but is the sixth-highest quarterback in base salary.

"Playing this year at my current salary, it's kind of taking a hometown discount,” Roethlisberger told the Tribune-Review. “I've played seven years on my current contract, which is the most of any (NFL) player or any quarterback. ... It is kind of taking a discount compared to maybe where it could be compared to other quarterbacks."
