Pickett of the Steelers undergoes surgery for high ankle sprain
Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback Kenny Pickett underwent ankle surgery for a high sprain and will be out for Thursday’s game against the New England Patriots. Coach Mike Tomlin did not give a specific timeline for Pickett’s return, but said the injury is not season-ending. Mitch Trubisky will start in place of Pickett, with Mason Rudolph as backup. The Steelers also signed Trace McSorley to the practice squad. Pickett has had previous injuries this season, and the Steelers are 0-3 when Trubisky has taken over. Despite this, the team has confidence in Trubisky to execute the game plan against the Patriots.
