Game recap

Watt takes a brief detour to the ground

T.J. Watt intercepted Cooper Rush, fell down, got back up and finished a 35-yard touchdown return in Pittsburgh's 20–13 win. Atlanta had time to watch him complete the recovery process and still couldn't stop the score.

Watt and Alex Highsmith each had two sacks, while the Steelers held Drake London to two catches and Kyle Pitts without one. Bijan Robinson supplied 173 yards of offense and a touchdown for Atlanta, a substantial effort without enough help. Aaron Rodgers found Pat Freiermuth for Pittsburgh's offensive touchdown, and Jaylen Warren helped run out the clock.
