Steelers’ Kenny Pickett Explains Franco Harris Snap Count Tribute

The Steelers enjoyed an emotional win Saturday, scoring a late touchdown over the Raiders on the night Pittsburgh honored Franco Harris and the Immaculate Reception. Harris, who died Wednesday, became the third Steeler to have his jersey number retired.

Pittsburgh honored Harris in several ways, from the jersey retirement to Cameron Heyward’s leading the team out with a No. 32 flag. The team also saluted Harris during the game, when quarterback Kenny Pickett called out the Hall of Famer’s name at the line of scrimmage before sneaking on fourth-and-1 in the second quarter.

Pickett picked up two yards on the play, extending a Steelers drive that would culminate with a field goal.
