Will the Pittsburgh Steelers have rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett signed prior to training camp getting underway? That should ultimately be the case, but in the meantime, however, Pickett, the 20th overall selection in the 2021 NFL Draft, is now one of just 37 league-wide selections that remain unsigned.
Pickens is the highest drafted player that remains unsigned and one of just two first round selections that has yet to autograph his rookie NFL deal. The other first rounder that remains unsigned is New England Patriots guard Cole Strange, the 29th overall selection in the 2022 NFL Draft.
