Report: Former OL Coach Adrian Klemm Wasn’t ‘Ideal Fit’ With OC Matt Canada, Leading To Klemm’s Early Departure

One forgotten but weird aspect of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 2021 season was losing offensive line coach Adrian Klemm with two games left in the season. Word leaked Klemm had accepted a job with the Oregon Ducks during the season and initially, he was going to stay on-staff until the Steelers’ season was over. But Tomlin allowed Klemm to leave early with two games left to play, having assistant OL Coach Chris Morgan run the show the rest of the season.

Klemm has suddenly made the jump back into the NFL, hired as an assistant in New England under Bill Belichick, who Klemm once played for in the early and mid 2000s.
