Are the Steelers actually trending towards an extension with George Pickens?
When Brooke Pryor recently suggested the Steelers were “continuing to trend towards an extension” with George Pickens, she stirred the beehive. Most Steelers fans, it seems, had already made their peace with an inevitable schism. Either he would play out the season and leave in free agency, or they would trade him.
Few people, if any, thought that the Steelers might sign George Pickens to an extension. So is there any merit to Pryor’s observations—or rather, he opinion? That’s all this seemed to amount to, rather than some kind of insider information.
