Is George Pickens Really ‘Soft’?

Is George Pickens really “soft”?

During the course of the 2024 season, Pittsburgh Steelers WR George Pickens has gotten under people’s skin. At least three times, opponents have made comments about him and questioned his toughness, usually right after a game.

Just off the top of my head, we had Cowboys DB Jourdan Lewis calling George Pickens weak. Later in the season, Browns DB Greg Newsome II called him a “fake tough guy”. Now we have an anonymous Ravens player casually referring to Pickens as soft in a playful video about teammate Lamar Jackson’s new cologne.
