JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Kenny Pickett took a big step toward becoming the No. 2 quarterback — and who knows what’s else — with a strong but surprisingly brief showing in the Steelers’ 16-15 comeback victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday.
But it was Mason Rudolph who produced his own last-minute magic when he threw a 1-yard touchdown to undrafted rookie Tyler Snead with 1:56 remaining to give the Steelers their second preseason victory.
The winning drive was set up by a Justin Layne interception and 34-yard return to the Steelers 48 with 3:03 remaining.
