CINCINNATI -- There’s no longer any evidence of the collar Cincinnati Bengals punter Kevin Huber wore around his neck for several weeks, nor is there a lasting reminder of the broken jaw he suffered as well.
But Huber remembers how it happened, clear as day.
The hardest hit Huber ever received in his career occurred in Week 15 of the 2013 NFL season at Heinz Field.
The Steelers were leading 14-0 when the Bengals punted to Antonio Brown, who took the return up the middle. As Huber drifted toward Brown, potentially to make a last-resort tackle, he was blindsided by Steelers linebacker Terence Garvin.
