Stephen A. Smith Worries About George Pickens Following DK Metcalf Deal

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ inability to find wide receiver help cost them in 2024. This offseason, they got ahead of things early, trading for DK Metcalf on Sunday. Finally, George Pickens isn’t the only playmaker at the position. However, ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith wonders just how well Pickens will adjust to having Metcalf in the building.

“He [George Pickens] was temperamental before that,” Smith said Monday on ESPN’s First Take. “So now that his has happened, imagine how much more temperamental he may be.”

If you thought the Steelers were in an odd situation with George Pickens before acquiring Metcalf, then surely it’s even more uncomfortable now.
