George Pickens wipes Steelers references from his social media

Pickens was not done there. He quickly deleted the post, as well as all the others on his account. Notably, he also appeared to unfollow everyone associated with the Steelers, including coach Mike Tomlin, quarterback Kenny Pickett and the team’s official Instagram account. He even changed his profile picture to one of himself in high school instead of with the Steelers.

Whatever his frustrations with his role in Pittsburgh’s offense, this is a bad look for Pickens considering his team won the game. He appeared to be sulking on the sideline even after his team took a late lead, and it seems he has yet to get over it a day later.

Pickens should have had a touchdown catch in Thursday’s win over Tennessee, but he had nobody to blame but himself for failing to get both feet down in bounds on a play he should have made. He remains the team’s leading receiver in 2023 with 521 yards and three touchdowns, but few will be sympathetic to him pouting over his role in a game his team won.
