Pittsburgh Steelers running backs Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren have been available for interviews together as a duo throughout media week ahead of the Super Bowl to promote Bounty. In one of those recent interviews, they were asked about their teammate, WR George Pickens, and his blocking abilities. After a rookie season where he was praised for routinely pancaking defensive backs off the line of scrimmage, he came under fire for opting to not block for Warren near the goal line. That play sparked a week-long media frenzy questioning Pickens as a player and the Steelers organization and leadership as a whole.
