Pittsburgh Steelers QB Kenny Pickett improved as the year went on during his rookie season in 2022, and as looks to make a jump during his sophomore season, Pickett said he’s back to having fun and playing free.

“Last year as a rookie, you kind of just want to go operate and get through your progressions and you’re kind of playing by the book, I’d say. And now that I know where everyone’s gonna be, I understand the defenses that I’m playing. I’m kind of allowing myself to go be me and just play free. It’s fun, I’m getting back to playing the way I wanna play,” Pickett said via the Steel Here podcast with Jersey Jerry and Kevin Adams.
