Pittsburgh Steelers guard Mason McCormick clarified his actions during a recent play against Cleveland Browns defensive end Jared Verse. During the Steelers' 27-6 victory, McCormick claimed he did not know he was blocking Verse when he sent him crashing headfirst to the ground. The incident occurred during a kick attempt, with McCormick stating he only felt someone jump and was instructed to stop the jumpers hands.
