When longtime Steelers ILB Coach Jerry Olsavsky left the organization, his replacement had big shoes to fill.
Olsavsky had been with the team since 2010, being hired as a defensive assistant where he would serve through the 2014 season. Olsavsky was then promoted to ILB coach in 2015, working in that capacity through the 2022 season. Shortly before it was announced that Olsavsky wouldn’t come back in 2023, Pittsburgh announced that they were adding Aaron Curry to coach linebackers, later to be specified as ILBs.
Curry was a former top-five pick, selected fourth overall by Seattle in the 2009 NFL Draft out of Wake Forest.
