NFL Fans Left Stunned After Kenny Pickett's Trade to Eagles from Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers traded quarterback Kenny Pickett to the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Per Schefter, the Eagles received Pickett along with the No. 120 pick in the 2024 draft. In return, the Steelers now own the No. 98 pick along with two seventh-round selections in 2025.

Pickett started in 24 games over the past two seasons in Pittsburgh, although his future with the organization was unclear after the team signed former Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson to a one-year contract at the start of free agency.

Now, the 25-year-old is the clear-cut backup in Philadelphia behind two-time Pro Bowl passer Jalen Hurts.
