It's the second time this season that Boswell has been named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week, previously earning the honors for making six field goals in Week 1 vs. the Atlanta Falcons. 

Earlier this week, head coach Mike Tomlin said that Boswell has been "everything we need him to be."

The Steelers have a short week and are back in action tonight as they will face the Cleveland Browns on the road in the Thursday Night Football matchup.

Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m.
