A week ago, Mike Tomlin wasn’t shy about criticizing offensive tackle Broderick Jones. After giving up three sacks and allowing QB Aaron Rodgers to be hit countless times, Jones needed a bounce-back showing. Tomlin says Jones followed through during his weekly press conference.
“Significantly better,” Tomlin said Tuesday via the team’s YouTube channel when asked about the left tackle’s performance against the Seahawks.
Jones’ overall offensive thoughts wouldn’t fall under that “better” umbrella. But Tomlin saw Jones take steps forward. Pro Football Focus disagrees, grading Jones about seven points worse in Week 2 than Week 1.
