Steelers sign OL Jones to replace Colon

Football Betting Lines

07/21/2010 - Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Pittsburgh Steelers signed veteran offensive lineman Adrian Jones to a one-year contract on Wednesday.

Financial terms of the deal were not announced.

Jones was released in training camp last season by the Houston Texans and did not appear in an NFL game.

The 29-year-old was a fourth round selection by the New York Jets in 2004 and appeared in 44 games, 16 as a starter -- all in 2005 -- in four seasons before being waived in 2007.

He then hooked on with Kansas City and played in 11 games, 10 as a starter, for the Chiefs in 2008.

To make room for Jones on the roster, the Steelers placed offensive tackle Willie Colon on the reserved/injured list. Colon suffered a season-ending Achilles injury last month and underwent surgery to repair the damage.

The Steelers chose Colon in the fourth round of the 2006 Draft and he had started all 48 regular season games at right tackle over the last three seasons after playing in just two games as a rookie.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
