The Pittsburgh Steelers will have a new quarterback in 2022—they’re not even sure which one it will be, yet. They have a new general manager, as well, amongst other changes. The defensive coaching staff was shaken up as well, with Teryl Austin promoted to defensive coordinator with Keith Butler’s retirement, and Brian Flores hired as a senior defensive assistant.
While Flores, the former head coach of the Miami Dolphins, talked earlier this offseason about doing work with the outside linebackers, however, it was always understood that his role would be multifaceted. That’s the same thing that Austin told reporters about his new peer earlier this offseason, via Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
