Carney: Zach Azzanni Is The Perfect Coach For Steelers’ WR Room

It’s been a while since the Pittsburgh Steelers have had stability in the coaching position for wide receivers. You’d have to go back to 2013-17 when the great Richard Mann held down the role, helping develop some impressive talent for the Black and Gold in that span.

Since then, the Steelers have cycled through Darryl Drake, who unexpectedly died in training camp ahead of the 2019 season, Ray Sherman, Ike Hilliard, and Frisman Jackson. Lost in that span for the Steelers at the receiver position from a coaching perspective has been accountability, tough love, and a true focus on the fundamentals.
