George Pickens blew up Mike Tomlin's plan to keep the Steelers' QB starter a mystery
Who's starting for the Pittsburgh Steelers at quarterback on Sunday night against the New York Jets?
Is it Justin Fields, who's performed really well and won the team a few games? Or is it Russell Wilson, who has come back from an injury that's kept him out?
Of course head coach Mike Tomlin didn't want to name a starter, and why would he? That keeps the the Jets in the dark, even though it seems like Wilson was the choice from earlier in the week.
But minutes later, wide receiver George Pickens blew it all up, saying that Wilson has been putting in extra work "because this is his first start."
