Summary
1:06 from the end, Ian Wheeler’s 2-yard touchdown and Steve Buechele’s pass to Dante Pettis for two points lifted Buffalo past Pittsburgh 28-27 in the preseason finale.
3-0 in preseason, the Bills gave rookie coach Joe Brady a comeback win before he opens his first regular season at age 36, with Josh Allen contributing play-calling input from the sideline.
27-17 early in the fourth, Pittsburgh had surged ahead on Kaden Wetjen’s 45-yard punt-return score after Will Howard threw two first-half touchdown passes and Drew Allar later led one TD drive.
1-2 in preseason, the Steelers also left with injury concerns as Howard was evaluated for an undisclosed issue and special-teams standout Ben Skowronek exited after appearing to hurt his head.
