‘If You Even Knew Half Of What He Was Dealing With:’ Aditi Kinkhabwala Doesn’t Believe Kenny Pickett Is ‘Total Bust’

While Kenny Pickett’s career with the Pittsburgh Steelers went poorly by any statistical measure, one reporter believes there’s more than meets the eye. Appearing on the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show Friday, CBS Sports’ Aditi Kinkhabwala puts blame on the circumstances surrounding Pickett in Pittsburgh.

“If you even knew half of what he was dealing with here, I’m not willing to say he’s a complete and total bust,” she said responding to a comment that Pickett was a bust. “He was not the right fit. It was not the right thing here.”

She also mentioned discussing the “half” of what Pickett dealt with off-camera but didn’t reveal any additional details during the interview.
