‘I Definitely Think My Elbows Were In’: TE Rodney Williams Says ‘It Is What It Is’ On Failed TD Recovery Of Blocked Punt

Exactly one player made his NFL debut for the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. I wonder quite how many people realize just how big of a role he actually played. TE Rodney Williams was elevated from the practice squad against the Baltimore Ravens due to Pat Freiermuth’s hamstring injury.

He likely saved a touchdown thanks to his hustle after WR Gunner Olszewki’s fumble on a punt return, and that was after nearly scoring one himself attempting to recover a blocked punt. Or succeeding in every way but the official ruling, in the estimation of some.
