AP Sports Writer

Indianapolis – Benny Snell Jr.’s 2-yard touchdown run with 9:55 left gave Pittsburgh the lead and the Steelers fended off a last-minute comeback bid to beat the Indianapolis Colts 24-17 on Monday night.

Snell had 12 carries for a season-high 62 yards after replacing the injured Najee Harris in the third quarter. Harris was ruled out at halftime with an abdominal injury.

Pittsburgh (4-7) won its eighth straight in the series and matched San Francisco for the most Monday night victories in league history (52).
