QB Kenny Pickett: Traded to Philadelphia Eagles (previous team: Pittsburgh Steelers)

Overview

  • Terry Bradshaw said the Steelers drafted Pickett in the first round but never provided the offensive line or weapons he needed to succeed.
  • During his two seasons in Pittsburgh, Pickett recorded a 14–10 starting record with 4,474 passing yards, 13 touchdowns and 13 interceptions.
  • After a brief stint with the Eagles, Pickett signed with the Cleveland Browns this offseason and now vies for their starting quarterback job.
  • Bradshaw likened Pickett’s situation to Baker Mayfield’s and Sam Darnold’s career revivals once they left their original teams.
  • The Steelers have pivoted to Aaron Rodgers as their 2025 starter, marking a new direction at quarterback.
