Last year, it was the Detroit Lions. This year, it's the New York Jets. Could next season be the Pittsburgh Steelers? If quarterback Kenny Pickett has any say in it, the answer would be know. 

The successful documentary series "Hard Knocks" has been a hit with fans, but there are some players like Pickett who could go without the distraction, and believes it could cause some players to lose focus. 

“I wouldn’t love it,” Pickett said. “You know how guys are when cameras are around. Everyone gets much louder and do stuff that they wouldn’t do because they see cameras. It’s human nature if you can’t really do different things. But guys kinda lose focus on what you’re there to do. But it is what it is.”

He did describe who he thinks the fans would like seeing the most on camera should that situation arise, however.

“The fan favorite for sure would be [Damontae] Kazee, I think,” Pickett said. “Kazee is probably the funniest teammate I’ve ever had. I think he would be a fan favorite for sure.”

He also has a teammate that he believes would not be a fan of being constantly filmed.

“He would hate it,” Pickett said of Connor Heyward. “He would hide. He hates cameras, dude. We were talking about that today. I forgot what we were talking about, but he’s like, ‘Yeah, just kinda like sit in the back.’ He wouldn’t want it.”

Steelers fans, would you want to see the team on the show next season?
