Behind the Steel Curtain: Tomlin's mistake will cost the Steelers more than money and draft picks
Video captured by a KDKA-TV of Pittsburgh camera during the Steelers loss to the Ravens shows the play from a previously unseen angle and gives the viewer an earlier look at Tomlin. As Baltimore return man Jacoby Jones races down the sideline past the Pittsburgh bench, Tomlin can be seen sidestepping to the edge of the field with his back to the play, forcing Jones to change direction in order to avoid him.
Tomlin has stated that he was watching the play on the jumbotron and got disoriented.
The Ravens would go on to win the pivotal AFC North game 22-20, but that hasn’t stopped the league from launching an investigation into the possibility that Tomlin intentionally interfered with the play. Reports have referred to a possible six-figure fine for the coach and loss of a draft pick for the organization.
