Missing the last three games due to a hamstring injury, the prolonged absence for Pittsburgh Steelers’ wide receiver George Pickens should be coming to an end in Week 17.
According to the Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac, Pickens is “expected to play” on Christmas Day against the Kansas City Chiefs at Acrisure Stadium.
George Pickens is expected to play against the Chiefs, pending one final health confirmation.
