Now that the Steelers’ offseason has officially begun, talks of how the 17th overall pick will be used have ramped up. The latest idea is reuniting QB Kenny Pickett with his favorite target from college.
WR Jordan Addison has declared for the 2023 NFL Draft and Pittsburgh will certainly be doing its homework on him.
Pickett and Addison were quite the duo at Pitt, connecting 100 times for 1,593 yards and 17 touchdowns in 2021. Addison transferred to USC in 2022 but had a much less productive season without his Pitt quarterback.
The connection between Pickett and Addison was undeniable, and the pairing of college teammates has proven to work. Bengals QB Joe Burrow and WR Ja’Marr Chase have been electric since their reunion in the NFL.
