NFL Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger won’t face any sexual assault charges, but he will be suspended from the field for six games.
Roethlisberger will be suspended for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy. The missed games will cause the athlete to lose $3 million.
Earlier this month, a 20-year-old college student accused Roethlisberger of sexually assaulting her in a nightclub restroom.
The district attorney said there isn’t enough evidence to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.
