In years past, the Pittsburgh Steelers — especially under head coach Mike Tomlin — have been knocked for the coaching staff built in the Steel City.
Historically, the Steelers have a rather small coaching staff overall, and rarely spend the big bucks to bring in or retain high-level assistant coaches, instead aiming to pay a head coach top dollar or spend that money on the actual football roster.
That’s not quite the case heading into the 2022 season though, as the Steelers have some rather big names on the coaching staff, according to former New England Patriots and Kansas City Chiefs executive Scott Pioli, who now works for NFL Network.
