PITTSBURGH -- After being sidelined with his second concussion in eight weeks, Steelers rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett is expected to start against the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday night. Pickett remains in the concussion protocol as of Monday afternoon, but Tomlin said if the team practiced Monday, Pickett would be a full participant.
"I think he's gotta check a box procedurally," Tomlin said.
With Pickett sidelined Sunday against the Carolina Panthers, Mitch Trubisky got the start and completed 17 of 22 passes for 179 yards and a rushing touchdown.
