Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett is confident he'll play Thursday against the Tennessee Titans, telling reporters Tuesday he's "for sure" suiting up.
Pickett left Sunday's loss in the first half with a rib injury after taking a hard shot from Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Adam Gotsis. Backup Mitch Trubisky threw two interceptions after replacing the second-year signal caller.
Pickett has completed 122 of his 200 passes for 1,330 yards, five touchdowns and four interceptions in seven games during the 2023 season.
The Steelers have registered a 4-3 record and are in a three-way tie with the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC North.
