On the Bootleg Football Podcast with NFL analysts Brett Kollmann and EJ Snyder, the two went in-depth on predictions for the AFC North in 2023. As part of the exercise, they picked offensive and defensive rookies of the year in each division, and Kollmann tabbed Pittsburgh Steelers OT Broderick Jones as his Offensive Rookie of the Year.
“I think he’s going to be an immediate starter in Pittsburgh and a quality starter in Pittsburgh. His talent is frickin’ unbelievable,” Kollmann said. “He’s an extremely smooth mover at tackle, he’s got length, he’s got power, he’s got flexibility, he’s got quickness.
