In addition to learning the team showed interest in Tennessee EDGE rusher Darrell Taylor, the Pittsburgh Steelers are doing their homework on Texas safety Brandon Jones. SB Nation’s Justin Melo passes along word the team had a formal meeting with him at the Combine.
Jones has been a name lost to injury through the pre-draft process thanks to a torn labrum that held him out of the Senior Bowl – he didn’t attend – and the Combine, where he was invited but was unable to workout. He started 31 games at Texas picking off four passes, including two as a senior.
