Coming into the Week Five matchup at Acrisure Stadium against the Baltimore Ravens, the Pittsburgh Steelers were going to be down the likes of wide receiver Diontae Johnson and tight end Pat Freiermuth for the big rivalry matchup, and had quarterback Kenny Pickett a bit limited coming off of a knee injury suffered in Week Four against the Houston Texans.
With guys banged up and out of the lineup, that put more of an emphasis on the Steelers’ passing attack going through second-year standout wide receiver George Pickens.
Pickens responded in a big way, hauling in six passes for 130 yards and the game-winning touchdown that came on a 41-yard strike from Pickett down the Steelers’ sideline with Baltimore cornerback Marlon Humphrey in coverage.
