George Pickens Likely Out Against Eagles

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens is unlikely to play in the upcoming Week 15 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles due to a significant hamstring injury. Head coach Mike Tomlin characterized Pickens as 'doubtful' after an MRI revealed the injury was worse than initially thought, following his absence in the previous game against the Cleveland Browns. Pickens leads the team with 55 receptions and 850 yards, making his absence a considerable loss for the Steelers' offense. Despite concerns, Tomlin mentioned there is an outside chance he could participate if recovery progresses well. Additionally, defensive end Larry Ogunjobi is dealing with a groin injury, but he is expected to be available. The Steelers aim to maintain momentum against the Eagles, who have an impressive 11-2 record.
