Kenny Pickett’s Debut Ranked Best Of All Rookie Quarterbacks

It’s only fitting the first quarterback taken in this year’s draft had the #1 performance during the first week of the preseason. CBS’ Jeff Kerr ranked the top performances of this rookie quarterback class, placing Kenny Pickett above everyone else after a great showing last night to beat the Seattle Seahawks. Those who watched Pickett play need little explanation but here’s what Kerr wrote:
