While his play was something less than spectacular, Pittsburgh Steelers rookie first-round OT Broderick Jones gained valuable experience on Friday night. A lot of experience, in fact. Nobody played a higher percentage of snaps than he did, logging 49 for the offense—12 more than anybody else on that side of the football.
He played the rest of the game outside of the opening drive when Dan Moore Jr. checked out of the game with the first of the first-team personnel. That was the plan, blocking for not just Mitch Trubisky but also Mason Rudolph and even Tanner Morgan.
