The Facts:
Roethlisberger, reading a short statement from the locker room at the team's facility, addressed on Monday night the decision of prosecutor Fred Bright not to pursue charges against Roethlisberger for sexual assault. Stating that he would discuss none of the details, Roethlisberger said that he was "truly sorry" for the disappointment and "negative attention" he has caused.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Meanwhile, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Roethlisberger will meet with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on Tuesday. The QB's attorney, David Cornwell, and agent Ryan Tollner will also be at the meeting. While most observers seem to believe Roethlisberger is more likely to be benched by the Steelers (perhaps for one or two games) than benched by the league, we'll obviously continue to monitor the situation and report back further as developments warrant.
