That little hop right at the sideline followed by the limp and going straight to the bench to sit down, all lines up with feeling a tweak.
For the illegal touching point (which I don’t think is the reason in this case, the more I watch it), you can look at Hunter Henry on the crazy Drake Maye touchdown from yesterday as an example. He stepped out the back of the end zone, so then he stayed out and backed up to basically let Drake know he wasn’t an option.
Jerome Bettis has released a statement prior to the Jets-Steelers game endorsing Kamala Harris: “I know this city and I love this city – we work hard to make things happen. No hot air. No bull. This is what defines the Steel City – and it’s the opposite of what Donald Trump stands for. Donald Trump has made promise after promise to the city of Pittsburgh, and time after time, he’s failed to deliver.” #Steelers #NFL
