The Steelers’ defensive coaching staff has seen a few key changes, right in line with an offseason filled with an unusual amount of turnover. Most notably, Teryl Austin was promoted from senior defensive assistant and secondary coach to defensive coordinator, replacing the retired heir to Dick Lebeau in Keith Butler. The Steelers also added former Dolphins Head Coach and long-time Patriots assistant Brian Flores as a senior defensive assistant and linebackers coach.
Steelers veteran defensive lineman Cam Heyward was interviewed today by Scott Pioli of NFL Network. In doing so, he asked Heyward about any changes with the two new faces in the coaching staff.
