Last season, Pittsburgh’s top two rookies made immediate contributions as WR George Pickens got going into the first four games of the year while QB Kenny Pickett came in at halftime in Week 4 against the New York Jets and would proceed to start every game the rest of the season that he was healthy for.
The rest of the 2022 draft class didn’t make as notable of an impact as DL DeMarvin Leal missed time on IR due to a knee injury as well as WR Calvin Austin III who missed his entire rookie campaign due to a foot injury suffered in training camp.
