Kenny Pickett Was Healthy For Seahawks Game, Mike Tomlin Explains Why He Didn’t Dress

Was he or wasn’t he? That was the question about Pittsburgh Steelers QB Kenny Pickett once the team rolled out their inactives 90 minutes before Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks. Was Pickett healthy to play or was his ankle still bothering him enough that it made sense to sit him, not even opting to make designate him as the emergency/third quarterback.

Holding his weekly press conference with reporters Monday, Mike Tomlin confirmed Pickett was healthy and cleared to play against the Seahawks but a lack of reps caused him to sit out entirely.
