| 23rd October, 2008 - 11:28 am |  Newsday - Steelers' quarterback Ben Roethlisberger believes that wide receiver Plaxico Burress, whom he played one season with, helped make him the player he is today.
"Plax really helped kind of mold me and make me who I am," Roethlisberger said. "He made me a better quarterback. It was a privilege and an honor to play with Plax."
In their one season together Burress caught five touchdowns even though he played only 11 games because of a hamstring injury.
"I have always thought he was one of the elites in this leagu,e and it was hard for him to leave," Roethlisberger said. "I didn't want him to go. But he had to do what was best for him. And he is doing a great job. I love watching him play when I watch the Giants play. It is just awesome."
The Steelers will battle the Giants, Plaxico's current team, this Sunday. [READ] |
