Miami CB Tyrique Stevenson Calls Steelers’ George Pickens The Hardest College WR He’s Covered

If Miami (FL) CB Tyrique Stevenson becomes a Pittsburgh Steeler, he’ll be greeted with his toughest college matchup on a NFL field.

Speaking during his Combine appearance, Stevenson said Pickens was the toughest player he matched up against in college. Before Miami, Stevenson spent his first two years at Georgia, squaring off against Pickens every day.

“I would say George Pickens,” he said of his toughest battles.
