Pittsburgh Steelers Exit Meeting: CB Donte Jackson
Experience: 7 Years (1 with Steelers)
The Pittsburgh Steelers traded for CB Donte Jackson in March as much as they traded away WR Diontae Johnson. While that might not have felt like the case initially, the paper trail is clear. Jackson is a player they coveted for years, and they treated him like it.
The Steelers even cut down some on their shadow assignments for Joey Porter Jr. That’s because they felt more comfortable with Jackson’s coverage ability than their options last year. While he is not perfect, he pretty much had the type of season that was to be expected.
