George Pickens goes viral for wild WWE-style move

George Pickens is known for pulling moves on the football field that look more appropriate for the wrestling ring, and the Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver was at it again on Monday night.

The Steelers were leading the New York Giants 26-18 late in the fourth quarter at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pa., when Russell Wilson was sacked and fumbled. Giants linebacker Bobby Okereke recovered and was pursued by Pickens and a few other Steelers players — sort of.

Steelers offensive lineman Isaac Seumalo made the tackle on Okereke. Pickens then leaped into the air and landed on Seumalo and Okereke with a WWE-style stunt:

Pickens has been accused of quitting on plays in the past. He didn’t do that after the fumble, though we’re not sure what exactly to call his stunt.

The Giants took over at the Pittsburgh 37 but were unable to taken advantage of the turnover. Daniel Jones was sacked and fumbled a few plays later, and the Steelers eventually held on to win.
