It got worse for Burrow, as he was strip-sacked by Steelers linebacker Alex Highsmith for a fumble in the first quarter as Steelers defensive tackle Cameron Heyward pounced on the loose ball.

Burrow was then picked off a further three times, with TJ Watt, Ahkello Witherspoon and Cameron Sutton intercepting the Bengals star.

The Steelers held a 17-6 lead at halftime, but the Bengals flipped the contest on its head in the second half.

Burrow threw a touchdown to Tyler Boyd in the third quarter and the Bengals made the gutsy call to go for a two-point conversion.

It was ultimately successful and the Bengals were within three points of the lead.

However, a field goal early in the fourth quarter from Steelers kicker Chris Boswell increased the buffer to six points.

The contest was not over, as a touchdown with the last play of the game from Burrow to star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase tied the scores at 20-20.

With a chance to win the game, Bengals kicker Evan McPherson missed the extra point attempt as the contest was forced into overtime.
