Steelers' George Pickens stuns fans with unreal workout despite hamstring injury
Today at 11:21 PM
The Pittsburgh Steelers offense will hope to pick up the pieces, and bounce back in the AFC playoff picture in Week 16 against the Baltimore Ravens. Fortunately, it appears that star wide receiver George Pickens could be back sooner rather than later.
A video circulated of the Steelers’ practice on Tuesday, which showed Pickens doing lateral drills at a very rapid rate despite a hamstring injury (via 93.7 The Fan).
“This is what a Grade 2 hamstring strain looks like from an athletic freak,” per Mark Kaboly on X, formerly Twitter.
Pickens was forced to miss the last two games, after straining his hamstring in practice ahead of Week 14 against the Cleveland Browns. The team was able to escape the Browns in that one, but the 23-year-old wideout’s absence was certainly felt in the Week 15 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Steelers offense needs George Pickens to return
The Steelers accumulated 163 total yards, with Russell Wilson being virtually shut down through the air. Calvin Austin III paved the way for the Pittsburgh pass catchers with five catches for 65 yards, and was the only member of the Steelers offense along with Pat Freiermuth with three or more catches.
Pickens will certainly bolster the team’s chances as they desperately need a win against the Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium this week.
