LATROBE, Pa. -- Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker Jarvis Jones is tired of fielding questions about his productivity.Jones has underperformed since the Steelers made him the No. 17 overall pick in 2013. But with free agency and a lucrative contract possibly on the horizon, Jones says hes ready to put his struggles in the past.Every year is motivating, Jones said. Im ready to play football. My head is in the right place, Im healthy and Im going to continue to work.The Steelers declined to pick up the fifth-year option on the four-year contract Jones signed as the teams first-round draft choice in 2013. If the Steelers dont sign Jones to a multi-year extension before the season begins or utilize the franchise tag on him in 2017, he could become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season.Jones fate will be determined this season.Its time to play football, Jones said.Steelers defensive coordinator Keith Butler expects Jones to have the best season of his career because of his contract status.He has to have his best year, Butler said. Hes in a position where theres pressure on him in terms of his contract and hes got to play well. I like him being in that position and I think hell be OK if he stays healthy.The 26-year-old Jones enters the season serving as a mentor to younger players on the team, while also trying to improve his own game.Thats the role Im in right now, Jones said. I have to do my part and I have to help coach show the younger guys as well.I have a lot of younger guys watching and learning, picking up the things Im doing, so for me, its all about going out and trying to make it the best day.Jones carried a reputation at Georgia for reaching the quarterback, with 28 sacks in 26 games. In three NFL seasons, he has five sacks.Jones played in 14 games with eight starts as a rookie and struggled through an injury-plagued season in 2014. He appeared in seven games in 2014, making three starts after a wrist injury that eventually required surgery derailed his second season. Jones played 15 games last season.I still have a lot of stuff I need to do, Jones said. Its all there for me. Im going to try to do as much as I can.That includes reaching the quarterback more often.I dont care if its 10, 15 or 20, Jones said. I just want to be productive and make plays.Last season, the Steelers defense went from an 18th-ranked unit to one that finished just outside the top 10 in points allowed. The Steelers also finished third with 48 sacks.The outside linebackers, Jones said, need to step up.Thats what were here for, is the pass rush, Jones said. For us to get pressure and become the defense we really want to be, our outside linebackers have to play a really big part in it.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFLYeezy Boost 350 Saldi .

LOUIS -- Theres no telling how these wacky World Series games will end. TORONTO -- A year after a life-threatening crash during practice for last years Indianapolis 500, Canadian James Hinchcliffe is back home and searching for his first victory of the season.The 29-year-old Hinchcliffe said he is feeling good entering Sundays race.The craziest thing about it is Im healthier, fitter now than Ive ever been, Hinchcliffe said Wednesday. When youre in a position like that, you start paying a lot for attention to yourself, to your body. And now I know a lot more about myself personally and physically.Hinchcliffe was badly injured during the practice session for the Indy 500 last year and in danger of bleeding to death before he was saved by crews at the track and doctors at a nearby hospital. He missed the rest of the season.The Schmidt Peterson Motorsports driver does have five top-10 finishes entering the Toronto race, including a third-place finish at the Grand Prix of Indianapolis in May. He finished seventh at this years Indy 500 and ninth last weekend in Iowa.Its been a roller-coaster ride, Hinchcliffe said. Were proving the paces week in and week out, we just need luck to fall our way a little bit.dddddddddddd Not something thats traditionally been in my cards at this race, but hopefully we can buck the trend this week.Hinchcliffe said good qualifying is going to be key if he hopes to win this weekend.This track, although you can pass, its a street course, its still tough, he said. But the big focus for us is going to make sure were quick over the lap, get a good qualifying position, and that usually helps a lot in trying to get that first victory.A win at home would also be a sweet feeling for the 2011 IndyCar series rookie of the year.I mean, short of winning the 500, this is as exciting as it gets for me to bring home a victory here, Hinchcliffe said. Weve done it on street courses before in St. Pete and Brazil so we know how to do it. Its just a matter of getting all the pieces to fall into place. It will be a big celebration in Hinchtown if that happens.
