Congratulations to Landry Jones, Steelers Digest Player of the Week!
“Landry’s been watching Ben for a long time. He knows the offense like the back of his hand…it was really like Ben’s little brother out there. It kind of brought us back like, ‘Dang, Landry has really got this.'” — Le’Veon Bell, post-game.
Landry Jones re-entered the game in the third quarter, following a brief stint in the second quarter, and finished the game completing 8-of-12 passes for 168 yards with two touchdowns for a passer rating of 149.3 in his NFL debut.

Ben “rallies the troops” before the game. (You can see the full series from Dr. Ronald Cypher here)
Ben is a happy man. Martavis Bryant quite a game.
@_BigBen7 helped @KelvinBeachumJr off the field and is staying by his side as trainers look at him. #Steelers #family
And how about Ben in practice this week?
“We’re going to tape it and brace it and I’m going to see what I can do. My plan is to go out Wednesday and practice. We’ll see what happens. I know I’ve got to be smart about it. I’ve got to be able to defend myself. We’re just going to take it day by day.”
