Former S Gerod Holliman Blames Steelers’ Coaches, Says Team ‘Mismanaged’ Him: ‘Never Really Gave Me A Chance’

For a seventh-round pick, Louisville S Gerod Holliman brought an interesting resume to the NFL. With gaudy interception numbers in college, he looked like a potential Pittsburgh Steelers steal late in the 2015 NFL Draft. Instead, he was gone nearly as quickly as he came, released at the end of his first camp with the team.

Now, Holliman is sharing his side of the story. In an interview with the 31 Vision Podcast, Holliman believes he wasn’t given a chance to play. In fact, he says his coach admitted “mismanagement” as he was being cut by the team.
