Redskins to start veteran Jones at LT

Levi Jones is set to start at left tackle for the Redskins when they face the Broncos on Sunday, according to a league source.
Jones, a former stalwart for the Bengals, was signed three weeks ago. He’s appeared in two games for the Redskins, but has yet to start.
Washington’s offensive line is arguably the worst in the NFL, and former Pro Bowl left tackle Chris Samuels was put on IR earlier this season with a career-threatening neck injury.
Stephon Heyer has struggled on the left side and has also recently been banged up.
