Kenny Pickett has a message for the Pittsburgh Steelers following his trade to the Philadelphia Eagles.

A couple days following his trade to the Eagles — the Steelers will receive Philadelphia’s 2024 third-round pick at No. 98 overall and two 2025 seventh-round picks with the Eagles also receiving a 2024 fourth-round pick at No. 120 overall — Pickett is sending a goodbye message to the city of Pittsburgh.

“Thank you, Pittsburgh! I came to this city 7 years ago and my life changed forever,” wrote Pickett over Instagram on Sunday, March 17. “Grateful for all of the amazing people I was fortunate enough to cross paths with, and for all of those who supported me along the way. I made life-long friendships and relationships that I will always cherish. Now, I am honored and excited for the next opportunity in my career — being able to play for the team that helped me find my love for the game as a kid. Go Birds!!”

The end of his message obviously references his fandom of the Eagles while growing up in nearby New Jersey. The 25-year-old quarterback actually reacted to his trade to Philadelphia just hours after it happened on Friday, posting a picture of himself as a kid whole holding up a Donovan McNabb jersey.
