Steelers fans roast Mike Hilton for getting Moss’d by Odell Beckham Jr. in Super Bowl

Hilton joined Pittsburgh in 2016 after going undrafted. He spent the first five years of his career with the Steelers, posting 237 total tackles, 30 tackles for loss, 23 quarterback hits, 32 defended passes, 9.5 sacks, seven interceptions, five fumble recoveries and three forced fumbles.

This past offseason, Hilton entered free agency and emerged with a four-year, $24 million contract by the Bengals. Sure enough, he made it to the Super Bowl in the first year with his new team.

In 9 regular-season games, Hilton recorded 66 combined tackles, five defended passes, two interceptions, one forced fumble and one defensive touchdown. Additionally, Hilton surrendered 61 receptions for 653 yards and four touchdowns on 85 targets, per Pro Football Reference.

While Rams fans and Beckham fans were excited about the touchdown, they had Steelers fans joining them.
