The Athletic’s Mike DeFabo reports that Steelers OT Broderick Jones (neck) “is beginning to do a bit more” at organized team activities.
Jones underwent surgery on his neck in March. The Steelers declined to exercise his fifth-year option early in May after spending the No. 21 overall pick on OT Max Iheanachor. Fellow Steelers OT Troy Fautanu also recently told reporters that the team wants him to move to left tackle. Jones was present at OTAs last week, but did not participate in team drills. It appears as though he will have to compete for a starting role this season. In today’s report, DeFabo shared a video of Jones doing sled work alongside OL Doug Nester, who was signed to a reserve/futures contract after being released last summer.
