Chase Claypool was there for his QB. Despite being sidelined all week long as a result of the league's COVID-19 protocol, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger came out slinging the rock against the rival Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday afternoon. Even after encountering a full week of virtual meetings and a single walk-through, “Big Ben” could not be stopped through the first three quarters of his team's Week 10 outing en route to tossing a trio of touchdown passes.

Rookie wide receiver Chase Claypool, who has quickly become one of Roethlisberger's favorite targets in 2020-21, secured “Big Ben's” third touchdown pass of the outing while extending the Pittsburgh lead to 29-7.

The surging Steelers are well on their way to improving to a perfect 9-0 on the season with a win over the Bengals. Even with the “coronavirus” pandemic, injuries and an unconventional season hampering just about every franchise out there, the undefeated Steelers continue to roll on seemingly without a hitch.
