Steelers WR Mike Williams seems to take subtle shot at Aaron Rodgers after Week 10 win

The newest Steeler had the biggest catch of the season for Pittsburgh

The Pittsburgh Steelers had their biggest win of the season in Week 10, defeating the 7-2 Washington Commanders on the road after being down 10 points in the second half. The play that put them in front for good was a 32-yard touchdown pass from Russell Wilson to Mike Williams in the latter’s first game, and first catch, as a Steeler. Pittsburgh acquired the veteran deep threat in a trade with the New York Jets ahead of last Tuesday’s trade deadline in exchange for a fifth-round pick, and Williams seemed to be trolling the Jets and his former quarterback Aaron Rodgers in his latest Instagram post.

Williams posted a photo of him celebrating after the touchdown with the “I love you” hand emoji next to a snake. Rodgers routinely does that hand gesture, so perhaps Williams is insinuating that Rodgers was a backstabber. He also included the hashtag “#RedLine” which was a phrase Rodgers used after he threw an interception against the Buffalo Bills on a pass that was intended for Williams. Rodgers says that play was the “red line” that separated the Jets chances of winning the game and not having a chance to do so.

It’s pretty evident that Williams is happy to be out of New York and in Pittsburgh.
