Steelers QB Kenny Pickett said they will take a “committee” approach to the receiver position following WR Diontae Johnson‘s hamstring injury.
โI think itโs by committee,โ Pickett said, via ProFootballTalk. โObviously, you know Diontae is a really good player, does so many good things for us, and was really kind of trending in the right way. I thought we had a great offseason and were doing great things in the game. [E]veryoneโs got to step up and pick it up. It canโt just be one guy. But you know, I had a ton of reps with everybody. So, Iโm confident theyโll go out there and execute.โ
Pickett praised WR Calvin Austin after recording six receptions for 37 yards in Week 1.
โHe does a great job,โ Pickett said. โHe worked so hard, always where I needed him to be, so I think thatโs why we have success working together and Iโm excited to get back out there on Monday and continue that success.โ
