George Pickens Has Career-Best Day In Week 5 Win

George Pickens Has Career-Best Day In Week 5 Win

one year ago

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens hauled in six of his 10 targets for 130 yards and a touchdown in a 17-10 victory over the Baltimore Ravens. Pickens was once again the favorite target of quarterback Kenny Pickett with Diontae Johnson (hamstring) on injured reserve. He was on the receiving end of Pittsburgh's only touchdown of the contest, a 41-yard strike late in the fourth quarter that gave the team the lead. Although the 22-year-old has established himself as a fantasy option, it's worth noting that the aforementioned Johnson will be eligible to return in Week 7 and is likely to earn a fair amount of targets. Pickens and the Steelers will face the Los Angeles Rams after returning from a Week 6 bye.
