Ben Roethlisberger's contract runs through the 2021 season, but the Pittsburgh Steelers are open to extending the quarterback's deal beyond that.

"Obviously after the season we'll evaluate his contract situation along with other contract decisions we have to make," Art Rooney II said. "But if Ben feels like playing longer and it looks like he's capable of doing it, certainly that would be a great scenario."

The Steelers are encouraged by what they've seen from Roethlisberger in training camp. He missed the final 14 games of the 2019 season after having significant elbow surgery.
