According to Cincinnati head coach Zac Taylor, Bengals defensive end Joseph Ossai did not cost his team a Super Bowl berth for a late blow to Patrick Mahomes. After losing the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship on Sunday, Taylor said, 'It's tough.' One play.' Didn't come down to that.' The Bengals eluded pressure and scrambled along the Bengals' sideline on third and fourth, barely missing the first down before Ossai gave him a shove from behind. As the penalty flags flew, the ball was moved 15 yards closer to Kansas City kicker Harrison Butker's game-winning field goal, a 45-yard attempt that barely made its way over the crossbar. As Mahomes honored his third Super Bowl berth, Ossai was seen weeping on the sidelines.
