Goodell to Meet With Big Ben in Wake of Sexual Assault Claim




NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says they designs to meet with Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger about the star's off-field problems.

Goodell already has spoken with team owners about Roethlisberger, who is accused of assaulting a 20-year-old college student in a Georgia nightclub on March 5. Roethlisberger's attorney says the quarterback committed no crime.

Goodell says the league "takes this issue seriously," & that they is "concerned that Ben continues to put himself in this position."

Roethlisberger also is being sued by a woman who claims they raped her in 2008 at a Lake Tahoe hotel. They denies those allegations & has asked for counter-damages.
