The Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 24-16 on Thursday night in an NFL preseason affair.
A key moment in the third quarter saw the Steelers down 16-14 with the Eagles driving into their territory. Former Michigan State cornerback Justin Layne had the stopper, and the momentum shifter.
A 2nd and 8 pass from Nick Mullens was jumped by Layne and intercepted and returned to the 50 yard line. The Steelers would score the go-ahead and game-winning touchdown on the ensuing drive.
