Pat Freiermuth is the only Steelers player with multiple receiving touchdowns this year. George Pickens found the end zone once, but a penalty took it away. Since then, the third-year wide receiver has struggled to maintain focus, and the spotlight is back on him. All of his teammates are now fielding questions about him, especially in light of his low-snap percentage last Sunday.
Pickens wore the message, “Open Fucking Always”, on his eye black during the Cowboys game. Many took that as a sort of protest about his usage, even though he was coming off a season-high in targets.
