Two plays after Connor Heyward blocked an Indianapolis punt and rookie Nick Herbig recovered at the 1-yard line, the Steelers stretched their lead to two scores thanks to a 3-yard touchdown catch from Diontae Johnson.
After losing two yards on the first play on a Najee Harris run up the middle, quarterback Mitch Trubisky found wide receiver Diontae Johnson for a 3-yard touchdown, stretching the Steelers’ lead to 13-0 after a Chris Boswell extra point.
Johnson, who went more than a full year between touchdowns prior to scoring against the Tennessee Titans this season, has now scored three touchdowns in three straight weeks.
