Pittsburgh Steelers WR Calvin Austin has been named the AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for Week 8 of the 2024 season. He earned the honors for his 73-yard punt return touchdown to help the Steelers beat the New York Giants 26-18, moving Pittsburgh to 6-2 going into their bye week.

He’s not the only one taking home an AFC honor. T.J. Watt has also been named Defensive Player of the Week for his two-sack performance against the Giants, including a critical strip/sack that helped preserve a late lead.
