Minkah Fitzpatrick played an incredible game Sunday, helping to propel the Pittsburgh Steelers to victory. 14 tackles, a pick-six, a QB rating of just 10.0 when targeted, the game-saving blocked extra-point, and so much more that doesn’t directly appear on the stat sheet.
If there was a blemish to yesterday’s great performance, it was the two unnecessary roughness penalties he was called for. The first on Cam Sutton’s interception, the second late in the game that helped lead to the Bengals’ game-tying score. Speaking about those moments in an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show Monday, Fitzpatrick said he didn’t agree with either of those calls.
