“Once man’s misfortune is another man’s opportunity,” Tomlin said of Dobbs as No. 2 QB Landry Jones is injured. “I know I’m excited about watching him play QB with that starting offensive group…..”At that position, you’re defined by how you perform in certain circumstances,” Tomlin said. “It will be good to get him in that stadium on Friday and watch him, in terms of putting his skills on display.”
Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown are among the core veterans on the offensive side of the ball who won’t play in the preseason opener.
