Mike Tomlin Not Worried About Kenny Pickett’s Injury History In First Two Seasons

For the fifth time in his brief career, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett is dealing with an injury.

In the past, he’s had two concussions, a rib injury, a bone bruise in his knee, and was dealing with an ankle injury all week leading up to Sunday’s matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. He then re-aggravated that ankle injury in the second quarter Sunday, leaving the game. On Monday, Pickett had surgery on his ankle to try and help speed up the recovery process.

The latest injury that knocked him from the game and will cause him to miss 2-4 weeks, has some starting to raise concerns about Pickett’s durability in the NFL.
