Buccaneers HC Todd Bowles Loves Seeing Rookie Quarterbacks

On Sunday, Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett will make his second career NFL start. It will also be his first career NFL start at Acrisure Stadium, a venue he’s obviously quite familiar with. Pickett and the steelers will, however, face a formidable opponent on Sunday in the form of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and not just because veteran quarterback Tom Brady is on that team.

In Pickett’s case, Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles is someone the Steelers young quarterback better be ready for on Sunday as he is a defensive guru with quite a bit of success against rookie quarterbacks throughout his coaching career.
