PFF: Broderick Jones Continues To Struggle In Pass Protection At RT

After a promising start after being inserted into the starting lineup at right tackle in Week Nine, Pittsburgh Steelers’ rookie Broderick Jones is starting to come back to earth quite a bit.

Jones, who moved back to the No. 2 spot in Pro Football Focus’ rookie offensive tackle grades entering Week 17, had a decent showing against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 16, grading out at a 59.6 overall from PFF. But his work in pass protection remains a major concern.

The Georgia product graded out at just 50.7 in pass protection against the Bengals, though he allowed just two pressures on 30 drop backs.
