Kenny Pickett takes over at quarterback for Steelers in Week 4
The Pittsburgh Steelers have replaced starting quarterback Mitchell Trubisky with Kenny Pickett in the second half of their Week 4 game against the New York Jets.
What It Means:
Pickett will take over from Trubisky with the Steelers down 10-6 against the Jets. Trubisky was unable to sustain any drives against the Jets' struggling defense, so the Steelers will see what their 2022 first round pick has to offer.
Pickett was strong in the preseason this year, but has not seen any real NFL action yet. The Pitt prospect will take his first snaps against the Jets and has an opportunity to lead the Steelers to a comeback victory in his debut.
