The only rotating Broderick Jones did on Sunday was spinning himself off the field. Despite Pittsburgh’s attempted two-man show at right tackle between himself and rookie Troy Fautanu, Jones was yanked mid-way through his first series after three costly penalties and repeated missed assignments.
Speaking to reporters Thursday, Jones didn’t sugarcoat his play.
“Shit, I played bad,” he said via The Trib’s Chris Adamski. “That’s all it is at the end of the day. You fuck up, you get pulled.”
Fautanu started and played the first two series. Jones came on for the Steelers’ third drive, backed up inside their 1-yard line.
