"He's been very productive. He's going to come in and compete, but he's not going to be given the position," Butler said. "Jason Worilds is here. He's the next guy up since [Harrison] has left, and I expect Jason to be better than he ever has been."

For all those Jones lovers who thought the Steelers were just going to throw Jones in and he would become a pro bowler.

That's not to say he won't start and he won't be good, but the way many were acting it was if he was already a hall of famer.

And this certainly sounds different than Payton saying they'd find a way to get Vaccaro on the field at either safety spot and the nickel.

My guess is they knew about his poor work ethic and this is how they're going to motivate him.

Coach speak IMO. Camp etiquette is to give the vet the chance to get the job. Pushes the rookie even more but still gives the Vets a nod

So you're saying they should have come out and said he will be a starter right away?
