Paige Spiranac is objectively the biggest golf influencer on the planet. With more than 3.2 million followers on Instagram, any time she posts anything it immediately goes viral.
That said, Spiranac doesn’t limit her sports takes to just golf. Sure, that is what she is known for – but she is also a really big football fan.
Specifically, Spiranac is a Pittsburgh Steelers fan.
This week the Steelers clinched a playoff berth after the Las Vegas Raiders defeated the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night Football. Because this is Ben Roethlisberger’s last year in the NFL, the fact that he lives to fight another day was not lost on anyone.
On Sunday, a sports book tweeted out this message regarding Roethlisberger’s looming playoff showdown:

Which prompted a five-word response from Spiranac that immediately went viral.
He can’t move that fast

Spiranac has never been shy when it comes to talking smack about Roethlisberger. Whether it was her two-word ‘bittersweet’ message regarding the Steelers quarterback last week or past criticism she has levied against him – Spiranac generally keeps it pretty real.
It’s worth remembering Spiranac doesn’t have to offer up Steelers takes. Her posts do quite a bit of engagement on their own:

But she does it because she genuinely enjoys doing so.
Spiranac is not afraid of making headlines. Whether it’s for her outrageous photos, seductive Halloween costumes or polarizing commentary on men staring at her chest – she routinely calls it how she sees it.

In that spirit, for as long as Roethlisberger is in the league – expect Spiranac to comment on him.
