Steelers make big left tackle decision with Broderick Jones ruled out

The Pittsburgh Steelers made a huge announcement regarding who will start at left tackle in place of Broderick Jones, who's been ruled out for the Week 13 game vs. the Buffalo Bills with a neck injury.

On Friday, Steelers HC Mike Tomlin revealed that OT Andrus Peat, who signed with Pittsburgh on August 7, will be the starting left tackle in Week 13.

Selected by the Saints with the 13th overall pick in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft, Peat went on to play in 127 games for the Saints, with 104 of those coming as starts. He signed with the Las Vegas Raiders in 2024, where he appeared in 15 games but only started one.

A versatile offensive lineman that can play both tackle and guard, Peat will have his hands full against the fearsome Bills edge rusher duo of Joey Bosa and Gregory Rousseau — tasked with keeping the returning Aaron Rodgers upright this Sunday.
