Kenny Pickett A QB2 Vs. Raiders
2 years agoPittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett (concussion) will play in Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to head coach Mike Tomlin. After missing Week 15 with a concussion, Pickett returns to an excellent matchup as the Raiders are allowing the seventh-most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks in 2022. That, coupled with a pass defense that ranks 31st in the league in DVOA, puts Pickett in a good spot heading into the fantasy semifinals. That being said, the rookie quarterback hasn't shown much of a ceiling this year as he has yet to throw for multiple touchdowns in any game. Treat Pickett as a mid-range QB2 in Week 16.
