Pittsburgh Steelers receiver George Pickens had quite an up and down season that included some controversial game moments that led to penalties, him missing three games with an injury and the Steelers losing in the wild-card round of the playoffs.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are apparently beginning their quarterback contract negotiations. With the season behind them and a massive decision to make at the sport's most important position, they're getting a head start on two candidates - beginning with their starter from last year.

PITTSBURGH -- Echoing the words of his head coach, Pittsburgh Steelers owner and president Art Rooney II said talented but mercurial wide receiver George Pickens has "room to grow."

Pittsburgh Steelers owner Art Rooney II backed wide receiver George Pickens after the players' 2024 frustrations.

George Pickens will likely be playing on an expiring contract in the 2025 season. While there's still plenty of time, the Pittsburgh Steelers have not yet discussed extending the contract he signed as the No.

Mike Florio and Chris Simms spell out why they could be sending the wrong message by rewarding his behavior with a long-term investment now, but also how he could resent the team if they make him wait.

Pickens has flashed promise as a pro but also hasn't yet shown he's worth the numerous headaches he's caused the Steelers during his young career.
