Your Depot After Dark for Nov. 28.
Tomlin Sideline Anniversary
On Thanksgiving 11 years ago, Mike Tomlin had his infamous sideline incident with the late Jacoby Jones. Running back a kick seemingly for a touchdown, Jones had to veer right and avoid Tomlin, who was standing right on the edge of the sideline. Jones was tackled immediately after.
The moment drummed up plenty of controversy. And the league imposed a heavy $100,000 fine on Tomlin, who apologized and took responsibility for the moment. While the NFL also considered docking the Steelers draft picks, It ultimately decided against doing so.
Pittsburgh lost 22-20 to Baltimore.
Jones would become a Steeler in 2015 though fumbles quickly cost him a return role. Tragically, he did this past July.
