Broderick Jones Staying Prepared To Play Next Week

Pittsburgh Steelers first-round pick Broderick Jones made his NFL debut late in the team’s Week One loss to the San Francisco 49ers, playing left tackle after Dan Moore Jr. shifted over to right tackle following an injury to Chukwuma Okorafor. While Mike Tomlin said Okorafor will likely go in concussion protocol, Jones said he’s going to be ready if he’s needed.

“You just gotta take every week like it’s your last, just always prepare to the best of your ability. Just always be prepared because anything can happen, so just trying to stick to that method,” Jones said via Chris Adamski on Twitter.
