It was clear from the back and forth on social media last week that some Cincinnati Bengals fans were expecting Pittsburgh Steelers receiver George Pickens and linebacker Myles Jack to be fined. They weren't.
During the Bengals' win Sunday in Pittsburgh, Jack wasn't penalized for his late hit on sliding Cincinnati quarterback Joe Burrow, but CBS analysts Adam Archuleta and Gene Steratore said he should have been.
Toward the end of the game, Pickens hit Tyler Boyd while the Bengals' receiver was on the ground after recovering an onside kick. Pickens led with his helmet, and was ejected.
Pickens told reporters there wasn't much to say about his late hit of Boyd because it didn't affect the outcome of the game.
