🏈 Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette absolutely ripped Kenny Pickett in a recent online chat for not wanting to compete.

“When they signed Russell Wilson, I said we’ll find out about Pickett — is he a flower who will wilt in the face of competition or is he a fighter who will battle for what he thinks is his? You got your answer.”
