Steelers Deemed ‘Potential Landing Spot’ For Patriots Standout Defender

The Pittsburgh Steelers can continue to find ways to stack up wins, they certainly will look to add to the roster over the next few months.

Pittsburgh currently is 3-0 on the young season and is in first place in the AFC North by a comfortable margin right now. The Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns are tied for second in the division with 1-2 records, respectively. It’s early, but the Steelers control their own destiny and have the inside track to a playoff spot.

If Justin Fields can continue to impress under center and the defense and continue to dominate, there’s no telling about what this team is capable of. While this is the case, it wouldn’t be shocking to see the Steelers look to add even more standout defenders this fall ahead of the Nov. 5 trade deadline if they keep winning.

One player who was mentioned as a possible fit is New England Patriots standout cornerback Jonathan Jones by ESPN’s Dan Graziano.

“The Patriots have looked a bit more competitive than expected so far, but they certainly could fade,” Graziano said. “And if so, Jones is a player teams were circling in the offseason. Those seeking a cornerback could kick the tires once again, as Jones has 11 tackles this season and is only two years removed from a four-interception season.

“Potential landing spot: Atlanta Falcons. A.J. Terrell is a star, but the Falcons could still stand to upgrade the spot opposite him. Atlanta is 19th in interception rate (1.9% of opponent dropbacks). The (Kansas City Chiefs), (Baltimore Ravens), and Steelers would all love to add Jones, too.”

Jones is a very solid player who has 18 tackles so far this season for New England. It seems like it won’t be the Patriots’ year once again so maybe they will be open for business
