Before he became Pittsburgh Steelers’ GM, Omar Khan was known by one label. The “cap guy.” And it’s true. Prior to replacing Kevin Colbert, Khan was in charge of the team’s salary cap and point man on all contract negotiations, a role he held from 2001 to 2022.
But now that he’s second person to ever officially hold the General Manager label, he has bigger things to think about. And with that comes delegation, including those cap responsibilities Khan used to be intimately involved in. So who’s replacing him? It’s up-and-comer Cole Marcoux and appearing on Pat McAfee Show’s Thursday, Khan confirmed Marcoux is handling his old duties.
