The first two weeks of the 2023 season were rather rough for second-year Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett.
He looked unsure of himself, didn’t trust his eyes and lost all sense of accuracy — a strength of his — at times, missing layup throws that really bogged down the Steelers’ offense.
That changed a bit on Sunday night in Week Three against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Pickett looked much more comfortable and confident within the offensive scheme and turned in one of the best performances of his young career, completing 16-of-28 passes for 235 yards and the first two-touchdown game of his career through the air.
