The problem Zorn had to face with Jansen was he is good in the run and terrible in the pass protection. Heyer is good in pass protection and terrible in the run. So pick your poison. If your whole line is better at running the ball then pass protection then run is your staple so we see Jansen. Besides one man does not make pass protection. Sticking Heyer in would only plug one hole we have on pass protection.
I think it's a safe assumption the coaching staff doesn't like something they see in Heyer or else he'd be starting. You say it's his run-blocking and certainly he was poor at that but my guess is there's more to the story. For one thing, we're not running to the right very often anyway, so Jansen's moderate advantage isn't really playing a factor. Again I just think Heyer isn't seen as a starter.
