Arthur Smith: Having Players From Previous Stops Now With Steelers ‘Helps Fill In The Blanks’

Throughout the offseason, it’s been quite eye-opening just how many former Atlanta Falcons players the Pittsburgh Steelers have brought in for new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.

Of course, Smith was the head coach in Atlanta from 2021-2023. But now he’s tasked with getting the Steelers offense back on track as the new offensive coordinator following three dreadful seasons under Matt Canada.

To do that, the Steelers have brought in a handful of former players under Smith in an effort to not only help the transition be as smooth as possible, but also help the rest of the offense learn the system and lean on those veterans who know the system in and out and communicate it.
