George Pickens took another shot at the Cleveland Browns, targeting cornerback Greg Newsome with his latest bit of shade.
Pickens and the Steelers are set to host the Browns on Sunday for a highly anticipated rematch. The Browns won their Week 12 clash 24-19 in the snow. The game concluded with Pickens and Newsome exchanging blows after the game’s final play. Pickens lost his helmet and was held back by stadium security.
Newsome has continued to talk trash, calling Pickens a “fake tough guy” on social media. But Pickens delivered a puzzling comment on Friday in advance of their matchup.
“I don’t even know who that is,” Pickens said when asked if there would be trash talk between him and Newsome on Sunday.
The comment from Pickens generated quite the response from fans.
“Not knowing who a notable starter is on the other team is always the corniest thing you can say,” one fan said.
“Weird way of saying you don’t watch film,” another added.
