    How Adrian Gonzalez Jersey did the injury happen? Cleveland did a great job of being ready for the Steelers' trick play, playing a safe defense on the field goal attempt and covered all of Boswell's Asdrubal Cabrera Jersey receiving options on the play. That left the Steelers' kicker scrambling around looking for anywhere to throw the ball.

    He ended up holding onto the ball for too long. And he paid the price for it by taking a ma sive hit from Jordan Elliott.

    IYER:

    That hit knocked Boswell out of the game and left the Steelers without a kicker. To add insult to injury, former NFL referee Gene Steratore New York Mets Jersey noted that the Browns should have been whistled for roughing the pa ser on the play but were not.

    Even though Chris Boswell is a kicker by position, on this fake field goal attempt, he is a pa ser. A defender cannot hit the pa ser forcibly in the head or neck area. IMO this should have been a 15 yard penalty for roughing in .

    INJURY UPDATES:

    Boswell's absencecould prove to be a difference-maker in their tightly contested battle with the Browns. In hisabsence, punter Pre sley Harvin III handled a kickoff for Wilmer Flores Jersey the Steelers. Meanwhile, the team elected to go for a two-point conversion following their touchdown.

    Pittsburgh converted the first time but had it called back for a penalty. They still chose to go for two from the 12-yard line, but they couldn't convert.
