As the search for the next general manager of the Pittsburgh Steelers continues on during the offseason, one name has emerged as a front-runner, according to Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Steelers’ Insider Gerry Dulac.
Dulac, writing in his Post-Gazette chat with fans Wednesday, believes that Philadelphia Eagles’ Vice President of Player Personnel Andy Weidl is the front-runner for the position post-Kevin Colbert.
“I’d be willing to bet he is the front-runner for the position, as of right now,” Dulac writes in regards to Weidl.
A Pittsburgh native who has spent the last 25 years in the NFL scouting department, Weidl is a name that emerged late in the first round of interviews for the opening opening at general manager.
