PITTSBURGH — (WPXI) – Kenny Pickett is scheduled to practice fully on Wednesday, according to Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin. The announcement from Tomlin comes days after Kenny Pickett suffered a concussion against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Pickett, the team’s starting quarterback on the depth chart, left the game in the third quarter with the Steelers leading over the Buccaneers. Mitch Trubisky then closed the door, leading to a potential quarterback controversy. However, Tomlin shut down any of that noise, as the Steelers will start Pickett if he is healthy. “If he can play, he will play,” Tomlin said. Tomlin noted that he did not want to ‘blow in the wind’ or ‘flip the script’ on the quarterback situation. That has been consistent messaging on Tomlin’s part, as he wants the team to know which quarterback to rally around on a week-to-week basis.
