By now, we’ve all heard the comments and nitpicking being made over the size of Steelers’ first round quarterback Kenny Pickett’s hands. It’s actually been a few years since any QB graced the NFL landscape with hands as small as Pickett’s, which measured 8.625 inches at his Pro Day.
In fact, in the 2015 season, Michael Vick played for the Steelers with hands measuring only 8.5 inches. If we dig a little further, two of the last QB’s to lead their teams to Super Bowls in Jared Goff and Joe Burrow, both possess hands measuring 9 inches.
Speaking of Burrow, the Cincinnati Bengals’ counterpart to Pickett is often brought up in player comparisons, and not just solely on the size of their mitts.
