How many games will Kenny Pickett start in 2022?

In 100 days, the NFL will kick off the 2022 season. The Pittsburgh Steelers open their season on the road against the defending AFC champion Cincinnati Bengals. The question is, who will be playing quarterback?

Between now and the start of the season, Pittsburgh has to decide when and if to get star rookie Kenny Pickett into the starting lineup over Mitch Trubisky.

It feels like it’s only a matter of when and not if Pickett will start in 2022 but how many games will he end up starting in his rookie campaign? That’s the question of the day.

Pittsburgh selected Pickett out of Pitt with their first-round pick in 2022. The Steelers worked quickly between signing Trubisky and drafting Pickett to prepare for life without Ben Roethlisberger.

The Steelers are going to struggle to find a spot in the playoffs this season in a crowded AFC so how does that change the staff’s philosophy for getting Pickett into the starting lineup? Cast your vote and let us know.
