The Pittsburgh Steelers made many changes from last season, but arguably the biggest was replacing Matt Canada as offensive coordinator with Arthur Smith. And even though the offseason program has hardly gotten underway, the players are already seeing the impact of the change.
“I’d say his biggest difference is he’s very interactive in the meetings”, RB Jaylen Warren told Cameron Heyward on his Not Just Football podcast, contrasting Canada and Smith. “You want to pay attention because he’s gonna call you out if you’re not paying attention. It’s happened a couple times. I think his approach to being the OC is really good”.
