Bad push?

[Rduke55]

Sorry I don't have the hand history.
Pokerroom MTT. 22 left (40 paid). I have just below 14K which is about 14th or 15th place. I had about 26K but people are not letting me steal and am getting multiple callers on my standard PF raises.
BB is 2K. About to got to 3K in 4 minutes.
Middle position w/ Tc9c. I limp (first mistake? but the BB big stack has been calling everything PF). SB completes, BB checks. Flop is QcJh4s. SB checks, BB thinks for a while and bets out 3K. I push. He calls w/Jd7d and I'm out.
Should I have even been in this hand? Should I have raised PF? Should I have just called the 3K?
My thinking was that I'll be in the blinds soon, prolly after the blinds go up, there's 9K in the pot, and if he calls I have outs.
