It Took Just Two Passes From Mitch Trubisky For Steelers Fans To Start Blasting Him

It’s going to be a rough year for the Pittsburgh Steelers as they look for a replacement for Ben Roethlisberger who retired in the offseason.

Mitch Trubisky got his first taste of public razzing from the fan base after he tossed two incompletions on his first two throws at training camp as the Steelers first-string quarterback. One fan close to the field at Saint Vincent College very clearly yelled, “Get Pickett in there!”

Mitch Trubisky takes the first two first-team reps and has two incompletions. A fan yells: “get Pickett in there!”

Mitch Trubisky just misfired on two passes to start team drills. And a call for Kenny Pickett is shouted out here in Latrobe.

Yep. That’s what it took. Two passes. #Steelers @937theFan

Getting Pickett in there wasn’t any better.

The Pitt product and first-round draft choice worked with the third team. He threw an interception on the last play of practice.
