Steelers' Donte Jackson: Snatches interception in win
Jackson recorded an interception and a pass defensed in Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
Jackson picked off Joe Burrow on a tipped ball in the third quarter, recording an interception for the second straight week and fifth time overall in 2024. The cornerback has also added 29 total tackles (20 solo), eight passes defensed and a fumble recovery over 12 games this season.

Steelers' T.J. Watt: Two sacks in shootout victory
Watt recorded three solo tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and a forced fumble in Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
Watt made his biggest splash of the day in the second quarter, chopping the ball out of Joe Burrow's hand for a strip sack, which was ultimately recovered by teammate Payton Wilson. It was the second time this season that Watt was able to reach multiple sacks in the same game and he's now up 9.5 sacks on the year. The linebacker has compiled 43 total tackles (31 solo), including the sacks, while adding five forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and three passes defensed over 12 games in 2024.

Steelers' Cameron Heyward: Five tackles in win
Heyward recorded five total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding a pass defensed in Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
Heyward notched his first sack since Week 10, bringing down Joe Burrow in the victory. Additionally, the defensive lineman reached at least four tackles for the fourth time in five games and ninth time overall in 2024. Heyward has now produced 50 total tackles (26 solo), including 6.0 sacks, while registering eight passes defensed this season.

Steelers' Payton Wilson: Two fumble recoveries in win
Wilson recorded three tackles (one solo) and two fumble recoveries in Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
Wilson didn't have the most productive day in terms of tackles, but he did finish off a pair of highlight plays for the Steelers' defense. He recovered a fumble in the second quarter after T.J. Watt's strip sack of Joe Burrow and then he returned a fumble for a 21-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter after Nick Herbig jarred it loose from Burrow. Wilson has now compiled 51 total tackles (29 solo), an interception, a pass defensed, two fumble recoveries and a defensive touchdown over 12 games in 2024.

Steelers' DeShon Elliott: Leads team in tackles
Elliott recorded 11 tackles (seven solo) during Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
Elliott led the Steelers in tackles Sunday with his 11 tackles, which marked his second-highest total of the season. Over his first 12 appearances this season, the 27-year-old has tallied 83 tackles (55 solo), three fumble recoveries, two forced fumbles, an interception and five pass defenses.

Steelers' Chris Boswell: Makes three field goals in win
Boswell made three of four field-goal attempts while converting all five of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
Boswell has now missed kicks in back-to-back weeks, but Sunday's miss against Cincinnati came on a blocked kick early in the third quarter. However, the 33-year-old still saw plenty of work in Pittsburgh's high-scoring win, and he's now converted 34 of 37 field-goal attempts while making all 26 of his extra-point tries this season.

Steelers' Mike Williams: No targets in Week 13
Williams wasn't targeted during Sunday's 44-38 win over Cincinnati.
Williams recorded a 32-yard reception during his Steelers debut against Washington in Week 10, but he hasn't been targeted over three games since then. It's especially discouraging that Williams was held without a target during Sunday's high-scoring victory in which Russell Wilson tallied a season-high 414 passing yards. Williams seems unlikely to be a consistent fantasy option late in the regular season given his lack of work in recent weeks.

Steelers' Van Jefferson: Records 43-yard reception in win
Jefferson secured one of three targets for 43 yards during Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
Jefferson was on the field for 62 percent of Pittsburgh's offensive snaps Sunday, the second-highest mark among the team's wide receivers. While he didn't have many targets against Cincinnati, Jefferson put the Steelers in the red zone with just over six minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, which marked the team's longest play of the day. The 2020 second-rounder has secured three of five targets for 82 yards over the last two games, but it seems unlikely that he'll be a reliable fantasy option late in the season since his target share remains low.

Steelers' Cordarrelle Patterson: Logs six touches against Cincinnati
Patterson rushed three times for 16 yards while securing all three of his targets for 37 yards during Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
Although Patterson was on the field for just 10 offensive snaps in Week 13, he saw a considerable amount of work in the high-scoring victory. The 33-year-old had racked up just 12 yards from scrimmage over the last three games, so it was encouraging to see him turn things around against Cincinnati. Despite Patterson's success against the Bengals, Patterson is unlikely to see a significant uptick in playing time as long as Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren remain healthy.

Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Productive as receiver
Warren rushed the ball three times for nine yards in Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals. He added four receptions on four targets for 55 yards.
Warren seemed to be gaining momentum in the Pittsburgh backfield entering Sunday's matchup, but he was oddly uninvolved as a rusher. He managed to save his day as a pass catcher, tallying long gains of 29 and 14 yards. Despite that positive work, it will be difficult to trust Warren in fantasy lineups given his inconsistent usage.

Steelers' Pat Freiermuth: Long TD caps productive day
Freiermuth recorded six receptions on seven targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
Freiermuth had been one of the only Steelers to not benefit much statistically from the switch to Russell Wilson in Week 7. That changed in Sunday's win, as he led the team in targets and matched his season high. He took advantage of that opportunity with a long 25-yard touchdown catch late in the third quarter and a 17-yard reception to help set up a field goal just before halftime. Even with the strong performance, Freiermuth topped 50 yards for just the fourth time in 12 games for the season.

Steelers' George Pickens: Scores third TD in uneven showing
Pickens recorded three receptions on six targets for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.
As is often the case, Pickens' performance had plenty of ups and downs. He was involved in a pick-six early in the game when he fell to the ground on a target, only to cash in on a 17-yard touchdown on the Steelers' next drive. Pickens later chipped in long receptions of 36 and 19 yards but was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct on each. Setting aside the penalties, Pickens has been very productive in five games since Russell Wilson took over under center, averaging 81.1 yards per game while accounting for all three of his touchdowns on the season.
