Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin held his usual Tuesday press conference today. But this one was unlike all the others. On the heels of this morning’s news the team had fired OC Matt Canada, his removal dominated the conversation.
Before Tomlin opened the floor to questions, he made clear who the Steelers are replacing Canada with. He confirmed Tuesday reports that RBs Coach Eddie Faulkner will be the team’s offensive coordinator while QBs Coach Mike Sullivan will serve as the team’s playcaller.
“I’m excited about Eddie Faulkner coordinating our efforts,” Tomlin said via the team’s YouTube channel.
