It sounds like George Pickens being late for the Christmas Day game against the Kansas City Chiefs wasn’t a one-time thing. In fact, it sounds like it’s a regular occurrence and something teammates have simply accepted as him getting a pass from.
Appearing on 93.7 The Fan Tuesday morning, The Athletic’s Mike DeFabo, who shared the story of Pickens being extremely tardy to the Steelers-Chiefs Week 17 game, added more insight into his practice habits.
“Basically players kind of shrugged it off and they were like, ‘yeah, he’s late for practice often. He’s late for other things,” DeFabo told The Fan’s Joe Starkey.
