It only took one padded practice for Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens to make a highlight-reel catch. Check out the video below as Pickens goes up and over, contorting his body to make a ridiculous catch over rookie cornerback Joey Porter Jr.
After the catch, Pickens showboated a bit and chucked football into the chest of Porter, a move the rookie didn’t appreciate it. After practice, Porter said he couldn’t believe Pickens found a way to catch it but was fine with the extracurriculars. “Iron sharpens iron,” Porter said.

Pickens quickly developed his reputation for the circus catches at training camp last season. It carried over into the regular season and he is showing no signs of slowing down.
