Entering the NFL as a rookie quarterback is no easy task, let alone taking the reins and leading a starting offense in a stacked AFC conference. However, head coach Mike Tomlin is not ruling out that possibility of their prized rookie passer, Kenny Pickett, who was taken 20th overall in the first round Thursday evening. Hailed as the most pro-ready QB in this year’s class, Pickett may not need to begin the season under center; after all, they just signed Mitch Trubisky in free agency, so there’s no need to rush the rookie. It certainly doesn’t sound like Tomlin is shutting the door on the possibility, though, based on comments made earlier.
