Early Tuesday morning, the world woke up to the long-anticipated news by many of Steelers Nation that the Pittsburgh Steelers were officially moving on from OC Matt Canada, per a statement from HC Mike Tomlin provided by the team. Tomlin’s statement said that Canada was being relieved of his duties, effectively being fired from the team after a humiliating offensive performance last Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, compounded by a poor performance on offense by Pittsburgh throughout Canada’s tenure as offensive coordinator.
Tomlin spoke to the media in his weekly press conference, giving an opening statement about his decision to move on from Canada.
