The Steelers did one-on-ones between the offensive and defensive line, and one player who struggled tremendously was left tackle Broderick Jones.<\/p>\n<p id=\"pc5mdM\">Per Nick Farabaugh of PennLive and Zach Smith of Steelers Now, the Steelers\u2019 former first-round pick was beaten convincingly by Alex Highsmith on several occasions.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4a8dcJ\">\u201cAlex Highsmith dominates Broderick Jones on three straight reps,\u201d Farabaugh posted on X. \u201cDusted on consecutive ghost moves and then wins on the third rep with a spin move.\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Alex Highsmith dominates Broderick Jones on three straight reps.<\/p>\n<p>Dusted on consecutive ghost moves and then wins on the third rep on with a spin move.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FarabaughFB\/status\/1951448764646039902?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">August 2, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"oHhDtI\">Smith was a bit more blunt with his analysis.<\/p>\n<p id=\"O6Sz6H\">\u201cHighsmith is SMOKING Broderick in one on ones my goodness,\u201d he posted on X.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Highsmith is SMOKING Broderick in one on ones my goodness<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Zachary Smith (@ZacharySmithPGH) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ZacharySmithPGH\/status\/1951448448093593926?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">August 2, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"O6had0\">This is not a great omen for the Steelers, as the fate of their season largely relies on the success of the offensive line keeping Aaron Rodgers upright.
