‘He’s Been Around The Block And Back’: Mike Tomlin Likes Zach Azzanni’s ‘Professional’ Coaching Style

When the Pittsburgh Steelers hired Zach Azzanni to be the next wide receivers coach on February 8, it was expected that the Steelers were getting a good coach who brings intensity, accountability, and a real passion for the job to the table, which aligned well with a young receiver group.

Two days into training, even after a bit of a heated verbal dust-up with third-year receiver George Pickens, that remains the case with Azzanni.

For Steelers’ head coach Mike Tomlin, the style that Azzanni brings to the table is what he likes about him.
