The fact that former Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Bruce Arians as the new head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers hired former Steelers quarterback Byron Leftwich, who played under Arians, to be the Buccaneers’ new offensive coordinator isn’t necessarily related to the Steelers.
But the fact that he first caught the coaching bug while he was in Pittsburgh is worth discussing. He talked about that during his introductory press conference as a first-year coordinator on Friday, including what it was like to take things away from being able to play behind Ben Roethlisberger and learn from his game.
