Steelers' George Pickens Doubtful for Key Matchup Against Eagles

Pittsburgh's top wide receiver is likely to miss a second consecutive game due to a significant hamstring injury, complicating the team's playoff push.

George Pickens, the Steelers' leading receiver with 850 yards and three touchdowns this season, is doubtful to play against the Eagles on Sunday due to a hamstring injury.
Head coach Mike Tomlin described the injury as more significant than initially expected, following an MRI conducted after last week's game against the Browns.
Pickens first experienced discomfort during practice last Thursday, leading to his absence from the Steelers' Week 14 victory over Cleveland.
The Steelers, currently leading the AFC North at 10-3, can clinch a playoff spot this week with a win or tie against the Eagles, or losses by both the Dolphins and Colts.
In Pickens' absence, the Steelers will rely on wide receivers Scotty Miller, Van Jefferson, and Mike Williams, who stepped up in last week's win.
