3 recent roster cuts who could immediately replace Kenny Pickett for Eagles
The Philadelphia Eagles acquired Kenny Pickett from the Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason for what felt like pennies on the dollar. Sure, Pickett consistently underperformed across two seasons at the helm of Pittsburgh's offense. And yeah, he did sorta lose his job to Mason Rudolph at the end of 2023.
