Steel City Underground will pick an exceptional play of the game as a highlight each week of the Pittsburgh Steelers 2024 NFL regular season. Stay tuned as we hand-select the very best from the Black and Gold!
The Pittsburgh Steelers found a way to get back into their NFL Week 12 game against the Cleveland Browns in the snowy fourth quarter. After a ten-play series in which the Browns went up, 18-6, the Steelers finally got in sync offensively to go down the field on just seven plays before, they too, found the end zone.
Starting at their own 31, Russell Wilson started the drive with a short pass to Darnell Washington. Justin Fields entered the game and carried the ball around the right end of the line, skating along the sideline for a 30-yard gain. Fields’ second run was sniffed out and resulted in a loss of two yards.
After a Najee Harris run, an offsides penalty against the Browns, a short pass to Harris from Wilson, Cordarrell Patterson attempted a run but Grant Delpit was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct.
On 1st & Goal from the Cleveland 3, the Steelers offense finally found success in the red zone. Wilson tool the snap from shotgun and the handoff to Jaylen Warren was quickly carried through the line and bounced off of attempted tackles. Warren found the end zone, off balance but successful.

Warren’s run and Chris Boswell‘s successful PAT closed the score to 13-18. After Nick Herbig stripped Jameis Winston on a sack during the Browns’ next offensive series, Wilson and the Steelers offense scored again when Calvin Austin caught a beautiful pass to go up by one point over the Browns.
The two touchdowns, unfortunately, were not enough to win the game as the Browns battered the Steelers defense and put the ball into the end zone once again.
Warren finished the game with 11 carries for 45 yards and 3 catches for 19 yards.
Watch: Warren pounds through the line for a touchdown appeared first on Steel City Underground.
