    Earlier this week, Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown made it clear his team would target Philadelphia Eagles rookie nickel back Brandon Boykin in Sunday's matchup, calling him a "candy bar" that could be eaten up in coverage.

    Boykin, however, was wise to avoid the rookie mistake of biting back. According to Philly.com, the 2012 fourth-rounder from Georgia was unfazed by what he didn't quite understand as a joke.

    "That's funny to me," Boykin told the website. "We're just going to continue doing what we've been doing as a secondary, and me as well. … There's no point in rah-rahing in the media on Thursday. I'll let my game do the talking."
