Drama Seems to be Brewing Between George Pickens and Steelers

There appear to be issues between George Pickens and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens is the subject of headlines storming through the NFL as the second-year pro is seemingly upset with his current team and possibly his quarterback, Kenny Pickett. 

Pickett was shown on the broadcast during the team's Week 9 game visibly frustrated. Even after the team scored a go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter, Pickens was caught emotionless sitting on the bench while teammates celebrated. 

Now, Pickens appears to have taken his thoughts to social media. The wideout posted a story on Instagram saying "free me," but quickly deleted the post. He then followed up by deleting all photos of him in relation to the Steelers, and it's speculated that he also unfollowed the team, head coach Mike Tomlin and Pickett.

In the last two games, Pickens has caught just three passes. This past week, he recorded two receptions for -1 yard. However, he did have an opportunity to score late in the game but did not get his second foot in bounds on the catch in the endzone. 

The Steelers have a three-day breaking following their win over the Titans. They'll return to practice next week, where Pickens will likely be the topic of conversation during press conferences and interviews.
