Early in the second quarter of the AFC North battle on Monday Night Football at Acrisure Stadium between the Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers, star Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick came flying downhill to put a hit on Cleveland running back Nick Chubb inside the 5 yard line.
Fitzpatrick did his job, taking Chubb’s legs out to try and get the big, physical running back on the ground.
The only issue was that Chubb’s left leg was planted into the turf at Acrisure Stadium and absorbed all of the contact from Fitzpatrick at the knee. The tackle from Fitzpatrick led to a devastating injury for Chubb, who tore multiple ligaments and suffered a dislocated knee in horrific fashion, leading to him being carted off the field, ending his season and potentially putting his career in question.
