When the Pittsburgh Steelers addressed the quarterback room this offseason, it was a complete rebuild from the ground up. None of the 2023 quarterbacks are on the roster. However, when the Steelers hired offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, there wasn’t a similar purge of the offensive coaching staff. Running backs coach Eddie Faulkner, who also served as co-interim offensive coordinator for part of 2023, is still with the team.
So how well will coaches like Faulkner be working with Smith? Will there be struggles or will it be a good learning experience?
“I’m the running backs coach, so what I find interesting is how much we run it, and we like to run it,” Faulkner said about working with Smith during the first day of mandatory minicamp per video from Pittsburgh Tribune-Review’s Chris Adamski.
