The Pittsburgh Steelers offense has struggled all afternoon to move the ball. 

Shooting themselves in their own foot, struggling to generate any separation, and just failing to create any real explosion, it seemed things couldn't get much worse. 

But then they did:

Pickett Ruled Out

Pickett took the sack here and then had to be helped off the field. He was then taken into the blue medical tent followed by the locker room where he was ruled out immediately. 

The severity of Pickett's injury is obviously high, and we will await Mike Tomin's postgame presser and official medical findings before making any final conclusions. Mitch Trubusky is in the game as Pittsburgh tries to salvage whatever is left of this poor offensive performance. We hope the best for Kenny Pickett.
