George Pickens spoke to Mike Prisuta and Craig Wolfley after practice via the Steelers YouTube channel and told them that if talking trash will help his team win, he’ll do whatever it takes.
“I just like to compete. So f that involves talking, if that involves like winning, whatever I gotta do to win,”
There’s been a lot of reports about Pickens talking trash to the defense after he makes a play, and frankly, if that fire helps motivate him, I’m all for it. Receivers and defensive backs go at it all game trash talking back and forth, and Pickens certainly has shown some aggression going back to college against the guys lining up across from him.
