Mike Tomlin said the NFL has contacted the Steelers about the video that was shot of players celebrating in the locker room after the Colts game, which featured some players not wearing masks.

When we first saw the postgame TikTok dance by the Pittsburgh Steelers after their comeback win over the Indianapolis Colts, I was worried about how the NFL would react. Most of the players in the video were not wearing masks and it looked like it could be costly for the Steelers.
Head coach Mike Tomlin spoke to the media on Tuesday and indicated the NFL had already contacted the team about the video but would not elaborate on any details. He did, however, hint that the players in the video who were not wearing masks in the video have been disciplined by the team.
The league has taken a hardline approach to these sorts of things so there’s a real change the league gives Pittsburgh a significant fine and could even force them to forfeit a draft pick.
