Steelers kicker Shaun Suisham hasn’t missed this season, and he finally hit on some recognition.

Suisham was named AFC special teams player of the week after his perfect performance against the Ravens last week.

He hit all four of his field goal attempts, including the game-winning 42-yarder as time expired for a 19-16 win. It was his eighth game-winning kick of his career, six of them with the Steelers.

He’s off to a 14-of-14 start this season, the deepest he’s gotten into a season without a miss.
