Sources - Steelers trading QB Kenny Pickett to Eagles - ESPN

The Pittsburgh Steelers are trading quarterback Kenny Pickett to the Philadelphia Eagles in a pick swap, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Steelers will receive a 2024 third-round pick (No. 98) and two 2025 seventh-round picks in exchange for Pickett and a 2024 fourth-round pick (No. 120), sources said.

Once Pittsburgh signed Russell Wilson, Pickett preferred to move on, sources said.

Pickett, who grew up in New Jersey as an Eagles fan, will now back up Jalen Hurts with Philadelphia.

The Steelers selected Pickett with the No. 20 pick in the 2022 draft. In two seasons, he threw for 4,474 yards with 13 touchdowns and 13 interceptions.
