Broderick Jones Turns In Second-Highest Grade Among Rookie First-Round OTs In First Career Start

The Broderick Jones Era at left tackle for the Pittsburgh Steelers is off to a solid start.

Making his first career start in the NFL on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens at Acrisure Stadium, Jones had a solid showing overall for the Black and Gold. Playing 66 snaps against the Ravens, Jones allowed just one pressure in 38 pass blocking reps, good for a game of 67.0, and graded out well as a run blocker with a 77.2 grade in that category from Pro Football Focus in 28 snaps.

Jones’ overall grade of 74.8 against the Ravens was a good enough to make him the second-highest graded first-round offensive tackle from Pro Football Focus in Week Five, just behind Chicago’s Darnell Wright, who was selected at No.
