Steelers WR Chase Claypool says Ben Roethlisberger improvised on his 2 TDs

The chemistry between Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and rookie wide receiver Chase Claypool continues to develop. On Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, Roethlisberger connected with Claypool four times with two of them turning into touchdowns.

After the game, Claypool spoke to NFL Network reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala and he once again admitted it was Roethlisberger improvising that led to the scores. Claypool said Big Ben just tells them where to go, they do it and the football is there.

Pittsburgh has basically just handed the offense over to Roethlisberger when the team needs a play and he continues to deliver. Roethlisberger threw for 333 yards on Sunday and four passing touchdowns. Big Ben completed passes to seven different players and is maximizing the young talent on the roster.
