Though he returned home to the Pittsburgh area as an assistant GM, Andy Weidl could be on the move again here in the near future.
Closing in on the end of his second season as the assistant GM in Pittsburgh under GM Omar Khan, Weidl is a name that is gaining steam across the NFL as one of the top GM candidates, at least according to Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer.
In a piece for SI.com, Breer listed Weidl as one of the names to watch as a GM candidate, joining 28 other names.
“He’s ranked higher in the past, but he’s always been a really solid evaluator, and his pedigree is pristine—having gone from Baltimore to Philadelphia to Pittsburgh over a career that’s spanned more than two decades (and resulted in rings with the Ravens and Eagles),” Breer writes regarding Weidl.
