Late in the second quarter of the Week 18 season finale on the road against the Baltimore Ravens, Pittsburgh Steelers kickoff returner Godwin Igwebuike made quite the play without even returning the football.
With 2:19 left in the second quarter in a 7-7 game at M&T Bank Stadium, Igwebuike made a high-IQ play after a kickoff from Baltimore’s Justin Tucker.
Tucker’s kick looked to be going out of bounds, but the wet grass in Baltimore in the downpour kept the ball just inside the field of play. Instead of picking it, Igwebuike went out of bounds and then recovered the football, leading to a penalty on the Ravens, giving the Steelers possession at their 40-yard line.
