PITTSBURGH (AP) — Kenny Pickett threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Diontae Johnson with 4:02 remaining and the Pittsburgh Steelers slipped past the Tennessee Titans 20-16 on Thursday.
Tennessee rookie quarterback Will Levis played well in his second NFL start but couldn't match the electricity of his first, a four-touchdown masterpiece against Atlanta.
The Titans said Burks had full movement in all his extremities, it was reported on the Amazon TV broadcast.
The Titans responded to take a 13-10 halftime lead behind some poised play by Levis and Derrick Henry's unique brand of fury.
Inside linebacker Cole Holcomb was carted off in the first quarter with what appeared to be a serious left knee injury.
