John Clayton Expects Matt Canada To Make Steelers’ Offense Less Predictable In 2021

Barring something surprising on the Ben Roethlisberger front, the biggest news of the offseason for the Pittsburgh Steelers figures to be the fact that they made a change at offensive coordinator, opting not to renew the contract of Randy Fichtner, who had held the job for the past three seasons, and promoting Matt Canada, who was hired to be the quarterbacks coach in 2020.

Fichtner, like Canada, was the Steelers’ quarterbacks coach at the time of his promotion in 2018, and in fact retained that dual role through 2019 before Canada was hired. The former had served in that position since 2010, and had been on the staff since 2007.
