‘Knew What Type Of Player I Was’: Donte Jackson Not Surprised By Early Impact With Steelers

After targeting him via trade and free agency for the past few seasons, the Pittsburgh Steelers finally landed veteran Cornerback Donte Jackson this offseason via trade, sending wide receiver Diontae Johnson and a pick swap to the Carolina Panthers for the former LSU star.

Through the first six games of the season, Jackson has rewarded the Steelers for the move, making quite an impact for the Black and Gold.

So far, Jackson has three interceptions and has been a very strong No. 2 corner opposite Joey Porter Jr., giving the Steelers a dynamic duo at the position.
