The 2023 season was quite a disappointment for second-year Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett.
Entering the season, expectations were high for the young signal-caller, especially after a great preseason that saw him light things up through the air. Then, the regular season started, and Pickett fell flat.
Pickett struggled with his accuracy, rarely pushed the ball downfield, missed a number of big plays and really fell apart when there were ever any signs of pressure in the pocket. He also dealt with a handful of injuries, too, including a knee injury suffered against Houston in Week Four, a rib injury suffered in Week Eight against Jacksonville, and then an ankle injury against Arizona in Week 13 that landed required surgery.
