Mike Tomlin Not Surprised One Bit By George Pickens’ Showing In Training Camp

Another day, another strong showing for Pittsburgh Steelers rookie wide receiver George Pickens. It’s becoming a daily occurrence for the Steelers with their second-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft.

Midway through the second full week of padded practices at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Pickens continue to raise eyebrows with his high level of play, dominating in one-on-one and team 11-on-11 sessions, flying through the air to make play after play for the black and gold.

Though he still needs to show it in preseason and regular season action, Pickens is the talk of training camp at this point for the Steelers, moreso than the three-way quarterback battle that’s currently happening between Mitch Trubisky, Mason Rudolph and Kenny Pickett.
