For the second week in a row, a Pittsburgh Steelers player punted the ball into the stands after scoring a touchdown. Last week, it was WR George Pickens, and with Pickens inactive with a hamstring injury, TE Pat Freiermuth took notes and punted the ball after his third-quarter touchdown in the Steelers’ 27-14 win over the Cleveland Browns. Per Mike DeFabo of The Athletic on Twitter, Freiermuth’s response when asked about his celebration was simple.
“Someone had to get fined today,” Freiermuth said.
Per Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Freiermuth added that he was proud of his hangtime and said he was a punter during his high school days at The Brooks School in North Andover, Mass.
