The Pittsburgh Steelers marched to an 18-16 victory over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. With six field goals on six tries, the team’s placekicker became one of the key contributors of the day. That’s the reason why the NFL chose Chris Boswell this time.

The Steelers’ official Instagram post shared a picture of kicker Chris Boswell after his recent title win. Yes! The NFL crowned the 33-year-old with: “AFC Special Teams Player of the Week!” This came after Boswell made field goals from 32, 52, 32, 57, 27, and 50 yards, all scoring points for the Steelers in Week 11.

And as obvious, the quarterback of the team, Russell Wilson is happy to see his teammate achieving this prestigious title. Although the NFL awarded Chris Boswell for the week, Wilson made sure to rank the kicker the best throughout the year. This is evident from his recent Instagram story wherein Wilson reshared the Steelers’ post and tagged Boswell.

However, he didn’t just tag the player. Russell Wilson also declared him the “Best in the World!!!” in the caption of his IG story. On the other hand, this is the second time when Chris Boswell achieved this special award from the league. Earlier too in week 1, when Boswell kicked six field goals and three 50-plus-yard goals, the athlete was awarded with the same honor. And why shouldn’t he?

Chris Boswell has become the only player for the Steelers to hit three field goals of 50-plus yards. With this recent Week 11 record addition, the kicker is now the only player in the league to do it twice (after his Falcons stint).

So, as obvious, Russell Wilson is extremely happy for him as he said in a post-game presser after the matchup against the Ravens: “When you have so many great players, obviously, Boz, he’s always been one of the best in the game, and he showed that again today, just how clutch he is in so many crucial moments. When you really think about it, championship games, championship moments, they come down to crucial kicks like that a lot, and when you’ve got a guy that you can trust and know that he’s going to have no fear, we just believe in him.”

Now, that’s a special trust that Chris Boswell has developed for himself in Russell Wilson’s heart. But not only the QB, even coach Mike Tomlin is happy to have his special kicker on his team.

After Russell Wilson’s remarks, Mike Tomlin is fed up with Chris Boswell?

After Chris Boswell won the “AFC Special Teams Player of the Week” award in Week 1, it was speculated that he would be awarded in Week 11 too. And that’s what happened! Therefore, ahead of this win, head coach Mike Tomlin already felt fed up to hear that. Not seriously, though! While speaking to the media, Tomlin jokingly said, “I love Boz, and I’m tired of him getting player of the week. He’ll probably get Player of the Week again this week. He is deserving of it, but it reminds us of our warts. It reminds us of the work that we need to do. But no doubt I’m thankful that he’s on our team.”

Now, that’s a great way to praise a key player being a coach. Nevertheless, Boswell is happy. But this isn’t his ultimate goal. During a presser, the placekicker clearly mentioned, “I’m just here to do my job, and we needed six today. We didn’t need any last week. As long as we get the (win), who cares about the rest?”

Well, that’s a player spirit, and with this, it clearly means whenever the team needs him, Chris Boswell will be there to stand up for them. In total, Boswell has earned the Special Teams Player of the Week award four times in his career.
