The Pittsburgh passing game has looked crisp through the first two weeks of the preseason, spreading the wealth around amongst the numerous weapons at wide receiver and tight end. WR George Pickens and TE Pat Freiermuth have caught TDs from QB Kenny Pickett when the first-team offense has been out on the field while WRs Diontae Johnson and Allen Robinson II have also gotten involved for Pittsburgh through the air.
Johnson spoke to the media Monday and was asked about Pickens how he’s operating that he knows what to expect in his second NFL season. Johnson responded stating that Pickens isn’t letting off the gas as a veteran, taking every chance he can to work on his craft and consult Johnson on how to become a better pro.
