Steelers open 2023 preseason with a victory in Tampa Bay
The Steelers got a pair of long touchdown passes, including one from Kenny Pickett in limited duty, in a 27-17 defeat of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers here Friday night in the preseason opener for both teams.
The first-team offense, which played en masse, looked like a well-oiled machine on its only possession.
Pickett completed 6 of his 7 passes for 70 yards, including a 33-yard touchdown pass to George Pickens on third-and-8.
