Hardest worker in the room. First one in, last one out. Film junkie.
Those are all labels a franchise wants its face of the franchise and QB1 to exemplify, and that’s exactly what Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett did in his rookie season in 2022. He did that so much, in fact, that he needed to take some vitamin D during the season because he wasn’t getting enough sunshine.
Speaking with Steelers.com’s Teresa Varley for a terrific feature that the team site posted Monday, Pickett said he was typically in the building when it was still dark out in the morning, and then didn’t leave the South Side facility until it was dark, meaning he was working on his craft and preparing for the game ahead from sunrise to sunset.
