The Tennessee Titans gave a good account for themselves, but the Pittsburgh Steelers picked up their fifth win of the season Thursday night at home, dealing the Titans a 20-16 loss.
The concern Thursday night late was for Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks, carted off in the fourth quarter, but Titans officials informed the public that Burks had feeling in his extremities; more here on Burks in this game story: Pickett hits Johnson for late touchdown as the Steelers slip past Levis, Titans 20-16.
Tennessee led at the half, and still led going into the fourth quarter.
But Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett, who had been questionable going into the game after taking a hard shot last Sunday against Jacksonville, connected with Diontae Johnson for a 3-yard touchdown pass with 4:02 left in the game to put the Steelers in the lead, 20-16, a lead they would keep for the final score.
Pittsburgh (5-3) is off until Sunday, Nov. 12, a home game against the Green Bay Packers, and Tennessee (3-5) plays a road game that day at Tampa Bay.
