Steelers quarterback Mitch Trubisky had a tough day on the field Sunday and it was made no easier by the home fans when they chanted “Kenny” repeatedly. The fans were calling for rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett to take center stage but Trubisky was never replaced in the 17–14 loss.
After the game, Trubisky addressed the chants.
“It is what it is,” he said. You just block it out and continue to play football.”
Pickett was the first quarterback selected in the 2022 draft and is the presumed signal-caller of the future for Pittsburgh, but Trubisky won the starting job during training camp.
