It doesn’t look like everybody was happy to see Ben Roethlisberger get his haircut and beard trimmed.
Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf criticized Roethlisberger’s recent trip to Norman’s Cut N’ Edge to get his haircut and beard trimmed following a workout with his Pittsburgh Steelers teammates. Allegheny county is still in the “yellow” phase of reopening, which does not include barbershops and hair salons.
“My concern is just a general concern,” Wolf said Tuesday. “Anybody who puts himself or herself into harm’s way is something that I think we have to try to avoid. When you go to something like a barbershop and you’re not protected, I don’t care who you are, the chances of that virus actually wreaking havoc on your life increases.
“I don’t personally think any Pennsylvanian ought to take that chance. I certainly don’t want to take that chance myself.”
The Steelers and Roethlisberger posted a 38-second video that showed him quarterback throwing to his teammates, marking a major milestone in his recovery from September elbow surgery.
