‘I’ll Take GP Versus Anybody’: Justin Fields Confident George Pickens Will Get Plenty Of Targets ‘Each And Every Week’

As expected in Week 1, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ passing attack wasn’t flashy in their 18-10 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Other than George Pickens, the wide receiver room accounted for just eight yards on two receptions. That being said, Justin Fields was able to find George Pickens for some explosive plays that helped the Steelers ultimately come out on top.

Pickens finished the game with six receptions for 85 yards, including a long of 40 yards. He would have had another reception for 36 yards to put him over 100 for the day if not for a questionable offensive pass interference penalty.
