Landry Jones’ Thursday OTA Performance Termed ‘Brutal’ By One Steelers Beat Writer

The Pittsburgh Steelers have several players on their offseason roster that can play the quarterback position and while two of them, Ben Roethlisberger and Bruce Gradkowski are obviously locks to make the roster this year, it sounds like former fourth-round draft pick Landry Jones isn’t.

Several Twitter reports Thursday indicate that Jones, who is entering his third year in the league, is having a very poor showing so far during the team’s OTA practices. In fact, Chris Bradford of the Beaver County Times described Jones’ Thursday performance as being “brutal” and that he believes the Oklahoma product will need a strong training camp and preseason in order to make the roster this year.
