OT Broderick Jones has had a rough last month, but Mike Tomlin wanted to give him an opportunity to respond after being benched. Jones did just that in the Week 3 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.
His opportunity came as the result of an unfortunate injury to Troy Fautanu, but he prepared as if he was going to be playing, and it paid off.
Justin Fields praised Jones after the game for his performance.
“Huge part of the offense,” Fields said of Jones in his postgame press conference via the Steelers’ YouTube page.
