After Bengals running back Jeremy Hill scored a touchdown in the first half of Sunday’s game against the Steelers, he pulled out a black-and-gold Terrible Towel and pretended to rip it up.
That touchdown gave the Bengals a 17-3 lead in a game they were dominating, but things turned sharply from there. The Steelers would score 21 points and pull out a 24-20 win. The Bengals had gained 162 yards to that point, but had only 60 the rest of the way.
Steelers guard Ramon Foster said after the game that the turnaround should have sent a message to Hill.
