FRISCO, Texas — When you’re a 6063, 221-pound off-ball linebacker at the collegiate level, one who finds himself in the 99th percentile in both height, arm length (35 2/8-inches) and wingspan (85 5/8-inches), you don’t exactly have anyone to model your game after at the next level.

Other than 2024 and 2020 sixth-round safeties Ryan Watts and Antoine Brooks Jr., the last serious draft investment at the position for the Pittsburgh Steelers came in 2018 with a first-round pick in Terrell Edmunds.

The Terrible Towel curse appears to have struck once again, and this time the Houston Texans learned the hard way after their season ended with a 28-16 loss in the AFC Divisional Round in New England.

What initially looked like harmless celebration following Houston’s Wild Card win over the Pittsburgh Steelers quickly turned into fuel for one of the NFL’s most enduring superstitions.

After eliminating the Steelers last week, Texans mascot Toro posted a video on social media ripping a Terrible Towel. Around the league, many fans dismissed it as standard trash talk, but Steelers fans have seen this story...
