Watch: Steelers complete rare kicker-to-offensive lineman TD pass

DENVER -- Now that’s how to close a half.

The Pittsburgh Steelers executed a timely fake field goal, tying the Denver Broncos at 10 thanks to kicker Chris Boswell’s touchdown pass to left tackle Alejandro Villanueva.

The Steelers failed to convert a shovel pass on third-and-goal, so Boswell and the field-goal unit lined up for a 21-yard field goal with 3 seconds left. But Boswell took the snap directly and delivered a perfect pass to a flat-footed Villanueva in the middle of the end zone.
