It took over two years -- and the best receiver in football -- to end Chris Harris Jr.'s streak.

The Broncos' top cornerback finally surrendered a touchdown in coverage. The culprit: This deadly route by Steelers star Antonio Brown at Heinz Field.

Via NFL on Twitter:

That's the first score Harris Jr. surrendered in 36 games. That means you'd have to go back to Week 12 of the 2013 season -- a Broncos-Patriots game in Foxboro -- to find his last culpable play.

It's no shame to lose out to Brown in coverage. Harris Jr. shouldn't hang his head; he's still one heckuva shutdown corner who's a crucial piece to Denver's Super Bowl hopes.

It's been over two years since Chris Harris allowed a TD. Antonio Brown made sure to put an end to that. #DENvsPIT https://t.co/FqiJGtXlxj
