GMFB Host Sees Career Day For Kenny Pickett Against Texans: ‘Statement Game Coming’

It’s been a rather rocky start to his second NFL season for Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett.

After a ton of hype and anticipation throughout the offseason, Pickett hasn’t quite lived up to the billing through the season’s first three games. Though the Steelers are 2-1 on the season, Pickett has completed just 59.1% of his passes for 689 yards, four touchdowns and three interceptions.

He had his first-ever NFL multi-touchdown game passing in Week Three on the road against the Las Vegas Raiders and now gets an interesting matchup against the frisky Houston Texans, who have a similar defensive scheme to the one the San Francisco 49ers have, which really gave Pickett fits in Week One.
