Landed a 757 on a short runway in the mountains in Central America one day and only the right reverser deployed so used it normally with no problem staying on centerline with a bit of opposite rudder.

Of course if it was icy the plane would have turned in the direction of the reversing engine so I would have had to reduce or cancel reverse because the rudder couldn't compensate for the reverse at lower speeds.

Amazing how that works.
