It was the perfect response to Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt taking down Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow during a Minkah Fitzpatrick interception return just moments earlier.
Former Steelers defensive back Mike Hilton intercepted Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger and returned it 24 yards for a touchdown to extend the Bengals' lead to 31-3 just before halftime.
The Bengals routed the Steelers, 41-10, for their third consecutive win against Pittsburgh.
It was Hilton's first interception in his first season with the Bengals after playing for Pittsburgh for the first four seasons of his National Football League career.
