The Pittsburgh Steelers already managed to swing the momentum of the matchup against the Miami Dolphins in their favor. Early in the fourth quarter, they were successfully able to solidify this notion with a big play from cornerback Mike Hilton.

The Dolphins were about to get a first down via a rush by running back Mark Walton, until he was stripped on the tackle by Hilton. Watch below:

The timing of the Hilton's play was certainly ideal considering Miami, under Ryan Fitzpatrick, were attempting to play the part of the upsetting underdogs. However, it was Pittsburgh that wound being able to add to their total with a field goal on the ensuing drive.

The Steelers may have gotten off to a slow start against the winless Dolphins on Monday. Fortunately, their playmakers, such as Hilton, were able to find a way to come through when it mattered most.
