Kenny Pickett has captured the hearts of Pittsburgh Steelers fans following another impressive preseason performance against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday at TIAA Bank Field.
Pickett completed 6 of 7 passes for 76 yards and one touchdown before being replaced by Mason Rudolph. His only incompletion came on a spike to stop the clock.
It comes after he completed 13 of 15 passes for 95 yards and two touchdowns in Pittsburgh's preseason opener against the Seattle Seahawks on Aug. 13.
With two strong preseason performances under his belt, fans are calling for Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin to name Pickett the team's Week 1 starter over Mitchell Trubisky, who signed a two-year deal with the franchise in March.
