Quarterback Kenny Pickett had a promising rookie season for the Steelers and defensive lineman Larry Ogunjobi believes his teammate will be even better the second time around.
During an appearance on The Sick Podcast, Ogunjobi said that he's always thought that players make their biggest improvement between their first and second seasons in the NFL. Ogunjobi said the lack of pre-draft workouts, extra meetings with your team, and other things that are specific to a rookie year allows players more time to focus on growing their own games.
In Pickett's case, Ogunjobi said that he's seen a change in the way Pickett is "delivering the ball" this year but that the biggest difference is in how the quarterback is carrying himself.
