This is a big game for the Steelers. They already have a 1-0 lead on the Bengals for the Season. The Steelers need to start stacking wins if they want to turn their season around.
This is also going to be Rookie QB Kenny Pickett’s first start against a team in the division. Outside Linebacker Alex Highsmith looks to pick up where he left off after the week one matchup where he had three sacks.
