Pitt alums Aaron Donald and Tyler Boyd both advanced to Super Bowl LVI on Sunday, as Donald and the Los Angeles Rams defeated the San Francisco 49ers 20-17 in the NFC title game and Boyd and the Cincinnati Bengals beat the Kansas City Chiefs 27-24 in the AFC title game to reach the Super Bowl.
For Donald, this will be his second Super Bowl appearance, as he played in Super Bowl LIII, which concluded the 2018 season. However, in that game, the Los Angeles Rams lost to the New England Patriots 13-3, and Donald was denied a ring.
