The Pittsburgh Steelers added CB Donte Jackson via trade, and they probably knew what they were getting in him. He quickly embraced the challenge of working against their top wide receiver, George Pickens, who returned the favor.
After four days of training camp, the two combatants shared a mutual respect for each other’s game. One offered praise for the other, and the other reciprocated. Last year, Pickens battled then-rookie CB Joey Porter Jr., but now he has another worthy adversary—on the practice field.
“Donte is a fast corner”, he told Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette yesterday.
