Despite being listed as questionable and being expected to play in Week 14 against the Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers WR George Pickens was inactive after testing his hamstring ahead of the game, and an MRI after the game reportedly revealed a Grade 2 hamstring strain. Pickens has now missed three games after being inactive on Saturday against the Baltimore Ravens, and while he may return against the Kansas City Chiefs, Mike Tomlin didn’t expect Pickens to be out as long as he has.
“I did not,” Tomlin replied via the team’s YouTube channel when asked if he anticipated Pickens missing as much as he has.
