The Pittsburgh Steelers acquired CB Donte Jackson this offseason to make plays, and he made the first of training camp. Off a poorly thrown ball by QB Justin Fields, he read the throw and broke coverage to make the interception. While it wasn’t necessarily highlight-reel material athletically, it showed his instincts, which he intends to bring to the defense.

“That’s what I’ve been known for my whole time in this league”, Jackson said, via video from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
