WATCH: Young Bengals fan makes onside tutorial video for Steelers kicker
Chris Boswell might want to take notes while watching this video
During the fourth quarter of Pittsburgh's 21-14 loss to the Ravens on Sunday, Steelers kicker Chris Boswell pulled off what might go down as the worst onside kick in NFL history.
As you probably know, an onside kick has to go 10 yards for the kicking team to recover it. The problem for Boswell is that he fell about 9.9 yards short of that goal: His kick went about three inches.
The @Steelers just tried a rabona onside kick.

It. Well... did not exactly work out. #PITvsBALhttps://t.co/1HcbTVfnQi
Boswell was attempting to do a Rabona kick, and it just didn't work. The idea behind the Rabona onside is to fool the other team. If Boswell had successfully pulled off the kick, he would have struck the ball with his left (non-kicking) foot and kicked it the opposite way that he was aimed. That didn't happen though.
After watching the kick, a 12-year-old Bengals fan felt sorry for Boswell, so he decided to make a tutorial video. Boswell might want to actually watch this too, because the kids nails his Rabona kick. As a matter of fact, some team might want to sign that kid just for onside kicks.
Anyway, you can see the kid show off his Rabona kick in the video below.
