ESPN: Steelers’ Biggest Offseason Question Remains Competition For QB Kenny Pickett

For the second time in three seasons, the quarterback position is the biggest area of need for the Pittsburgh Steelers entering the offseason.

Unlike last time when the Steelers went into the 2022 offseason without Ben Roethlisberger under center following his retirement, the Steelers seem to have some sort of answer at the position, this time in third-year pro Kenny Pickett. But that answer might not be a good one, which is why the Steelers find themselves in the quarterback market once again under head coach Mike Tomlin.

Though Tomlin and team president and owner Art Rooney II stated that they still believe in Pickett as a franchise quarterback in Pittsburgh and want to see him make improvements as the starting quarterback, the team is still going to bring in some competition for the former Pitt Panthers star.
