For one thing, there's the hair. The rookie Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker has long dreadlocks that appear under his helmet and skitter across his name when he sprints into the backfield. There's the body, too. The 6-foot-2, 245-pound Jones is taller, leaner and wispier than the 2008 NFL Defens...
