LATROBE, Pa. -- When the Steelers hired Andy Weidl to be their first assistant general manager earlier this year, there were some questions as to what his duties would be and what he would bring to the table helping Omar Khan do his job.
Those were largely cleared up Tuesday when Weidl spoke with the media here at Saint Vincent College for the first time.
Weidl, who joined the Steelers after a successful 6-year run with the Eagles, the last three of which were as vice president of player personnel, has a long-standing friendship with Khan that dates back to their days together with the Saints in 2000.
