After Buffalo Bills punter Sam Martin appeared to tweak his hamstring after the Pittsburgh Steelers blocked a Bills field goal toward the end of the first half, the Bills were going to have to use a backup punter while Martin was looked at. With 48 seconds left in the half, the Steelers sacked Josh Allen, but with all three timeouts, they let the clock run down, until finally calling a timeout with two seconds left. The Bills kneeled out the rest of the first half clock and never had to attempt a punt with a backup, likely kicker Tyler Bass, as Martin returned in the second half.
