When the Pittsburgh Steelers announced the hiring and promotion of Adrian Klemm from assistant to head offensive line coach, many – myself included, I’ll admit – questioned the decision. But Zach Banner immediately defended the move. And in talking about Klemm in a recent interview on Steelers’ Nation Radio’s The Drive, posted to the team website, it’s obvious to see why.
Banner said his development and ascension into the starting lineup, netting him a two-year deal this past week, is in part due to Klemm’s coaching.
“My development in these past two years is a huge chunk to him,” Banner told SNR’s Matt Williamson and Dale Lolley.
