Broderick Jones of the Pittsburgh Steelers is recovering from offseason neck surgery. As training camp approaches, his return date remains uncertain, particularly after the Steelers selected Max Iheanachor in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Jones's previous promise at left tackle was interrupted by a Week 12 injury in 2025, placing him on injured reserve for the remainder of the season. If he can regain fitness in time, he will compete with Dylan Cook for the starting right tackle position.
