Ben Roethlisberger, Pat Freiermuth test who Kenny Pickett likes more
Steelers QB Kenny Pickett was tested with a lot of adversity this season. But he may have just had his most difficult test yet by Ben Roethlisberger and TE Pat Freiermuth.
Roethlisberger and Freiermuth texted Pickett the same thing at the same time in order to see who who likes more.
"We're gonna both text Kenny at the same time and see who he replies to first," Roethlisberger said on his "Footbahlin with Ben Roethlisberger" podcast. "On three hit send."
Roethlisberger has said that he has given Pickett advice throughout the season while Freiermuth is his close friend and teammate.
Both asked him if he'll do Roethlisberger's podcast in the coming weeks, and who he answered first may surprise you.
At 8:28 Pickett texted, "It will be way better than "Grillin' N' Chillin.'" "Grillin' N' Chillin'" is a podcast hosted by Freiermiuth and TE Zach Gentry, a hilarious jab by Pickett.
Freiermuth won by one minute as Roethlisberger received his text at 8:29.
"All he said back to me was 'Yes sir,'" Roethlisberger finished. "So that's kind of weird, but whatever."
Freiermuth may have won this time, but Roethlisberger will certainly look to even the score in this classic battle of mentor vs. teammate.
