Ex-Steelers QB Kenny Pickett screws up his Raiders debut in hilarious fashion vs. Chiefs

Former Pittsburgh Steelers QB Kenny Pickett is back at it again, kicking off his Las Vegas Raiders debut in a disastrous and hilarious fashion against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7.

Late in the Raiders' blowout loss to the Chiefs, starting QB Geno Smith was benched, and on Pickett's very first regular-season snap with Las Vegas, he fumbled the QB-center exchange — turning the ball over to Kansas City.

Selected by Pittsburgh with the 20th overall pick in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft, Pickett never truly lived up to the hype behind his arrival on the Steelers. Forcing his trade after Russell Wilson signed with Pittsburgh, Pickett wound up as an average NFL backup QB behind the Eagles' Jalen Hurts before being traded once more to the Cleveland Browns.

After losing the four-way battle for the Browns' starting quarterback job, Pickett was traded away — his third time in two years — to the Raiders.

Kenny “two gloves” Pickett is now responsible for two self-inflicted botched plays since leaving Pittsburgh — his self-sack against the Eagles and his embarrassing Raiders debut — while the Steelers are riding high behind four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers.
