There are plenty of reports that the Pittsburgh Steelers will not pursue a big-name quarterback like impending free agent Russell Wilson or trade for Chicago Bears QB Justin Fields. That would mean the Steelers, as they have repeatedly said, will go into training camp giving every opportunity to QB Kenny Pickett to start in 2024.
CBS Sports Radio host Zach Gelb fully expects that to be the case, as he said on Tuesday’s episode of the Zach Gelb Show. He just doesn’t think that’s a good idea.
“I do believe they are going to afford him the opportunity to be the starting quarterback from the jump this year,” Gelb said.
