The last time Kenny Pickett suffered a concussion, he was able to participate in practice while going through the NFL's protocol and was ultimately cleared to play the next game on the schedule.
But when Mike Tomlin addressed the media for his Tuesday press conference at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex, it seems to be different this time around regarding Pickett's second concussion.
"Kenny is in the (concussion) protocol. Like always, when we're in the protocol, we'll adhere to it. We'll rely on the expertise of our medical experts and let those guys provide the framework for how we proceed," Tomlin said.
