Key Highlights
- Though Washington was short of the sticks, the Browns were whistled for taunting at the end of the play to continue the Steelers' eventual field-goal drive. Washington's absence was especially significant for an offense that entered the game without its top two wide receivers in DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III. Washington is also instrumental in the Steelers' tush push play, often the primary pusher behind tight end/fullback Connor Heyward.
- With Washington out, the Steelers elected to attempt a pass on fourth-and-1 from Cleveland's 22-yard line rather than running a push play.
- Quarterback Aaron Rodgers targeted Scotty Miller deep and the pass fell incomplete.
