Steelers' George Pickens has 'real chance' to return vs. Chiefs

PITTSBURGH -- After missing the past three games, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens has a "real chance" to play against the Kansas City Chiefs on Wednesday, Mike Tomlin said Sunday.

Pickens, who sustained a hamstring injury before a Week 14 game against the Cincinnati Bengals, is one of several injured players who missed Saturday's loss at the Baltimore Ravens but could return for the Christmas Day game.

"Some guys that didn't play yesterday who have a real chance this week: Justin Fields, DeShon Elliott, Donte Jackson, George Pickens and Larry Ogunjobi all have an opportunity to play this week," Tomlin said Sunday.
