On the same day Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger returned to work out with his teammates, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said Wednesday that he plans to further investigate, analyze and discuss Roethlisberger’s conduct before he decides in “the near future” whether to punish him for his off-field behavior.
Roethlisberger had not participated in spring workouts while he awaited a ruling in Georgia on a sexual assault claim against him. Prosecutors announced Monday that they would not pursue the case. Roethlisberger then met Tuesday with Goodell in New York City to discuss matters, including what happened in Georgia.
