Roethlisberger Admits Watson Benefited From NFL Having Preseason Games

Ahead of this year’s Pittsburgh Steelers training camp getting underway, not many people would have bet that running back Terrell Watson would have ultimately made the initial 53-man roster. That, however, ultimately happened as the Azusa Pacific product and former undrafted free agent turned a strong preseason showing into a spot on this years 53-man roster.

While Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger probably isn’t a big fan of preseason games overall, he admitted Tuesday during his weekly interview on 93.7 The Fan that Watson is certainly one player who benefited this year from preseason games being played.

“It gives a guy like that an opportunity, a chance, to make the team,” Roethlisberger said of Watson and preseason games. “He probably wouldn’t have made the team if there was no preseason games and he went out and he ran really hard.”

The guy showed heart even though he missed on one 4th and 1. He was good overall and deserved a spot.
