With rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett in the concussion protocol ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Carolina Panthers, and the Pittsburgh Steelers coming off of a rather 16-14 painful loss to the Baltimore Ravens at Acrisure Stadium in Week 14, head coach Mike Tomlin wouldn’t commit to a starter under center all week long.
