Pickett takes 'real ownership' of offense

The play was a late addition to the playbook, taken from the Steelers' Week 10 matchup against the Saints. The Steelers' version put George Pickens inside, Diontae Johnson on the outside and Pat Freiermuth as the third option. If the safety bit the same way the Steelers' safety did on the tape, Pickens should get open.

It worked to perfection:

Pickens was able to get wide open and Kenny Pickett connected for a 31-year score in the closing minutes of the first half, building much-needed momentum for a 28-14 Steelers win over the Browns at Acrisure Stadium Sunday.
