Steelers WR George Pickens (hamstring) did not practice on Tuesday. He hasn't practiced since hurting his hamstring the Friday prior to Week 14. We'll continue to keep you updated on Pickens' status, but fantasy owners should not be counting on him in Week 16 fantasy lineups.
Steelers WR George Pickens (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Eagles. He didn’t practice all week. Reportedly dealing with a Grade 2 hamstring strain, Pickens is not a lock to make it back for Week 16. Pittsburgh’s WRs are hands-off in fantasy football against a stout Philadelphia secondary. TE Pat Freiermuth gets a boost with Pickens out.
Steelers HC Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that there's only an "outside chance" WR George Pickens (hamstring) plays against the Eagles this weekend. “It’s a little bit more significant than what we imagined," Tomlin added of Pickens' injury.

Steelers WR George Pickens reportedly has a Grade 2 Hamstring strain and will likely miss next week's game against the Eagles. Pickens missed yesterday's game against the Browns as a game-time decision, but the injury appears to be more severe than describing this week.
Steelers WR George Pickens (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Browns. Reports on his status for this one were positive this morning, but Pickens’ pregame workout must not have gone well. His absence leaves a huge hole in Pittsburgh’s passing game. Pickens has accounted for 24% of the team's targets, 24% of the receptions, 32% of the receiving yards, and 30% of the receiving TDs since QB Russell Wilson took over. WRs Calvin Austin, Van Jefferson, and Mike Williams could all pick up extra targets, along with TEs Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington. But we’ll also likely see the Steelers lean even more on the run game. Russell Wilson is not a recommended QB1 play with Pickens out.
