Kenneth Gainwell makes potential catch of the year on absurd touchdown in Steelers-Lions game

Kenneth Gainwell’s touchdown catch came on a contested pass in double coverage, helping the Steelers tie the game late in the first half of their Week 16 matchup.

  • Earlier this month, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell scored a sideline touchdown with 17 seconds left in the first half, tying the contest after a lob from veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
  • Trailin 10-3 and out of Chris Boswell's range, the Steelers attempted a sideline throw as Rodgers lobbed deep to Gainwell, seeking a spark.
  • In one-on-one coverage on the outside, Gainwell dove as a Lions defender tangled with him and both fell, then he rose and ran untouched into the end zone while a defensive-pass-interference contention followed.
  • The touchdown sent Pittsburgh Steelers into halftime with momentum, boosting Kenneth Gainwell's breakout campaign and reinforcing his role as a trusted target for Aaron Rodgers this season.
  • Across the season, Kenneth Gainwell has accumulated 451 rushing yards, four touchdowns, 57 receptions for 332 yards and two scores, with over 200 yards after contact and 402 yards after catch ranking top-10.
