Steelers sign Jones
The Steelers signed linebacker Jamir Jones.
Jones, the younger brother of outside linebacker Jarron Jones, was signed by the Houston Texans as a rookie free agent following the 2020 NFL Draft. He was later waived prior to the start of the regular season.
Jones played college football at Notre Dame where he appeared in 55 games during his four seasons. In 2019 he played in 11 games, finishing with 50 tackles, seven and a half for a loss, four and a half sacks. He also had two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery.
Shortly after he was signed by the Texans, his older brother shared how thrilled he was for him for landing in the NFL after switching positions.
