George Pickens accidentally reveals Steelers’ starting quarterback vs. Jets
NY Post
If Mike Tomlin had his way, the Jets would’ve gone into the weekend without knowing whether they would face Justin Fields or Russell Wilson — or both.
But Steelers wideout George Pickens might have ruined Tomlin’s attempt at some quarterback gamesmanship.
After Tomlin told reporters Friday that he had decided on a starting quarterback but wanted to keep his call “in-house,” Pickens revealed that he had worked extra with Wilson around practices since it’ll be “his first start.”
Wilson took first-team reps to start the week and appeared set to step into the starting role — which he originally won out of training camp — after missing Pittsburgh’s first five games with a calf injury.
He was active for Week 6 but backed up Fields while getting acclimated into the offense.
“I thought he was sharp,” Tomlin said Friday of Wilson. “I thought Justin was sharp as well. I thought we had a highly productive week from both guys and from the unit as a whole.”
