It's Time for Broderick Jones to Shine | Steelers Morning Rush

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today's it's the matchup between right tackle Broderick Jones and Baltimore Ravens left outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy. After a shaky start, Jones has been playing outstanding football down the stretch in 2024. According to PFF, he has given up just three sacks since Week 9. The bad news? All three of them came against the Baltimore Ravens. Jones gave up one sacks against Baltimore in Week 11 and two in Week 16. If he can go out and throw down a clean game against Van Noy, that would provide a lot better pass protection that Russell Wilson has been getting as of late, which could jump-start the veteran quarterback after a few tough games. It should also give the team a lot more confidence about going into 2025 with Jones as a starting tackle after a slow start to 2024. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
