The moment is never too big for him. I know everybody talks about the guy in Baltimore. He's a great kicker. Boz is a great kicker as well. We always tease him, they're 1A and 1B. Boz is yet to prove that he's 1B." Auto. Matic. Chris Boswell PFF PIT Steelers (@PFF_Steelers) The Steelers were certainly happy to have Boswell back after the seven-year veteran spent most of the past week in the league's concu sion Jackie Robinson Jersey protocol. Boswell mi sed the entire second half of Pittsburgh's Week 8 win over the when he was tackled hard after a botched fake field goal attempt. "It was a rough half," Heyward said of the experience. "I've been on the side where we haven't had kickers, whether that was by injury or bringing in some kickers that couldn't kick. Having Boz is pretty nice."I sues at kicker is what ultimately led to Boswell coming to Pittsburgh. A career-ending injury to during the 2015 season left the Steelers scrambling for a new kicker.

"We put a lot of team reps together. Instead of kicking on the sticks, the three of us kick together. I was so used to Jordan holding for the last six years ... everyone holds the ball a little bit different, so we've put a lot of work in since camp started. We've come a long way together."Boswell made a heads-up play after his second field goal made it a 23-13 game with le s than 12 minutes left. He that was caused by teammate James Pierre. To the chagrin of at least one teammate, Boswell acknowledged that he Enrique Hernandez Jersey took a "pretty good shot and got folded in half" after grabbing the loose pigskin. "Boz needs to get the hell out of the way," Heyward said of the play. "We were that close to putting him back Julio Urias Jersey on the injury report."Like all of the Steelers, Heyward's knows Boswell's value. He also knows that Boswell will continue to carry the same demeanor that has helped get him to this point."A kick is a kick," Boswell said about his game-winner. "There was a good breeze out there in the middle of the field in your face towards that end, and that's why Cairo Santos elected to go that way in the third and then with the wind at his back in the fourth. But a kick is a kick. There's going to be wind in every stadium we play unle s it's indoors, obviously, and you just have to adjust and make a kick."
