Held in check once again Pickens hauled in one of three targets for 23 yards during the Steelers' 17-14 loss to the Patriots on Sunday. Impact Pickens' playing time increased during Sunday's matchup, as he played 85 percent of the team's offensive snaps after he was on the field for just 71 percent during last week's regular-season opener. He had the team's longest reception of the game against the Patriots with a 23-yard catch late in the second quarter, but that was the only reception he logged in Week 2. After generating plenty of buzz during the preseason, the rookie second-rounder has been limited to just two catches for 26 yards on six targets over his first two regular-season games in the NFL.
