Kenny Kool? Pitt QB Kenny Pickett drawing Joe Burrow comparisons at Senior Bowl

MOBILE, Ala. — As great as he has been on the field in the Cincinnati Bengals' run to the Super Bowl, Joe Burrow's most exceptional quality as a quarterback might be the confidence he exudes off it.

And Senior Bowl executive director Jim Nagy said he sees Burrow-like qualities in one of this year's top quarterback prospects, Pitt's Kenny Pickett.

“I know that just the way he’s wired and spending time around him and the kind of guy he is, and talking with the guys at the Manning (Passing Academy) that have been around him and the guys at Pitt, he’s going to crush this process," Nagy said Tuesday at the Senior Bowl.
