Josh Jackson might be a new name in Pittsburgh, but he certainly has been around the block. The cornerback is a veteran of five seasons, a second-round draft pick of the Green Bay Packers back in 2018. That’s where he spent his first three years before finding himself in Kansas City for a spell last year.
He has spent most of his career as a reserve in spite of his pedigree and found himself beginning the 2022 season as a member of the Steelers’ practice squad, but they signed him to the 53-man roster ahead of Sunday’s game after rookie defensive lineman DeMarvin Leal was placed on the Reserve/Injured List.
