Dolphins’ Defensive Coordinator Praises Kenny Pickett: ‘He Can Get The Ball Down The Field’

Despite Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett’s concussion on Sunday, the Miami Dolphins are preparing to face the rookie quarterback and all the challenges he brings.

In his weekly press conference transcribed by the team, Miami Dolphins’ defensive coordinator Josh Boyer addressed the play of the Steelers’ starter and what he has emphasized to his defense in this week of practice.

“Yeah, so [Pickett’s] obviously very athletic,” Boyer said. “I mean he can drive the intermediate throws, he can get the ball down the field, he can definitely scramble to run or scramble to throw. He’s making quick decisions for them.
