Roethlisberger Signs Restructured Deal




The Steelers have completed another restructured contract, with quarterback Ben Roethlisberger signing a new deal this morning that will clear nearly $6 million of cap room for the 2013 season.By restructuring, the team takes most of the player's salary and roster bonus, if any, and turns it into a signing bonus. For salary cap purposes, signing bonues are prorated over the life of the contract in equal annual amounts.


So now everyone will praise Ben right? No. No one will. He had no choice in this town. What's even worse is they didn't even extend his contract, so they'll have to work on that in the next few years. Now they should work on restructuring Troy Polamalu's contract.
