There is a reason the Arizona Cardinals organization has long been called “Pittsburgh West”. Going back to when former Steelers offensive coordinator Ken Whisenhunt was the head coach, the Cardinals have always seemed to stock pile former Steelers on their roster.
Names of players who played for the Steelers, and went to the Cardinals is a long one. Players like:
Bryant McFadden
Max Starks
Marcus Gilbert
Jarvis Jones
Rashard Mendenhall
William Gay
The list could go on, but there is a new name to add, and that is James Conner. According to FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer, the former Steelers running back is heading west.
