Steelers rookie Kenny Pickett made a statement at the team’s quarterback competition Saturday night. Pickett played the entire second half and completed 13 of 15 passes for 95 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions, including the game-winning touchdown pass with four seconds left as the Steelers won 32-25. “It was pretty special,” Pickett said, via TheAthletic.com. “The whole evening was special. I’ve been here for so long, but I’ve never been able to go to a Steelers game, and my first as an NFL player, to end up like that in that stadium with a lot of friends and family. fearful.” The other two quarterbacks in the Steelers’ top three, Mitch Trubisky and Mason Rudolph, also played well. Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said after the game that he was pleased with the way all three of his quarterbacks played. But he had to be especially pleased with Pickett, who looked like his first-round pick.
