LeBeau gives Jones a vote of confidence

PITTSBURGH – The Pittsburgh Steelers officially demoted rookie outside linebacker Jarvis Jones to second team earlier this week. But that doesn’t mean Dick LeBeau is in any way discouraged about the progress the team’s first-round pick is making. The longtime defensive coordinator, in fact, gave Jones a vote of confidence less than a week after the latter played just 11 snaps in the Steelers’ 21-18 loss at Oakland. “I think Jarvis is on schedule for a first-year linebacker,” LeBeau said.
