Mike Tomlin Impressed With Broderick Jones’ Demeanor In Debut: ‘I Like How He Finished’

Pittsburgh Steelers first-round pick OT Broderick Jones got his first game experience tonight in Pittsburgh’s 27-17 win in their preseason opener over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin was asked his thoughts on how Jones played in his post-game press conference, and he was generally happy with how Jones handled things.

“Gave him a big exposure, I like his demeanor, I like how he finished. We’ll comb through the specific, look at hand usage and how he mixed up his protections and some of the things that are very technical that are a major component of this level of play,” Tomlin said via the team’s YouTube channel.
