Broderick Jones Benched Mid-Drive After Miserable, Three-Penalty Series

The Pittsburgh Steelers came into the game planning to rotate Troy Fautanu and Broderick Jones at right tackle. Instead, the only thing Jones did was rotate himself out of the game.

After Fautanu started and played the first two Steelers’ series, Jones entered the game on the third drive. Backed up on their half-yard line following a great punt by Denver’s Riley Dixon, the Steelers moved their way out of their end zone and drove downfield.

Their promising drive was ended by Broderick Jones. He committed three penalties in the span of a 14-play drive, including the ones negated by penalty.
