Quarterback Kenny Pickett will be a game-time decision to start for the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday night when they face the Tennessee Titans at Acrisure Stadium, Joe Rutter of the PIttsburgh Tribune-Review reports.
At his weekly press conference Monday, coach Mike Tomlin said the “door is definitely ajar” for Pickett returning from a rib injury he sustained late in the first half of the Steelers’ 20-10 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
“We’ll go through the week and look at his ability to throw, his level of comfort, his effectiveness and let that be our guide in determining his availability.”
If Pickett is unable to play, backup Mitch Trubisky will make his first start of the season.
