Running back Felix Jones is in need of making a strong impression starting tonight vs the Kansas City Chiefs and the Steelers are expected to give him that opportunity. Jones is currently slated to play around 8-12 snaps and possibly get some return time. Offensive coordinator Todd Haley is said to be intrigued about Jones ability to catch out of the backfield, so look for some possible designed screens to Jones. In two preseason games with the Eagles, Jones rushed for 45 yards on 12 carries, with a long run of 8 yards. |
