Art Rooney II Defends Randy Fichtner After Rough Season For Offense

It’s already pretty much written in stone at this point that Randy Fichtner will be returning for the 2020 season as the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive coordinator. An original member of Mike Tomlin’s staff with the team, initially as wide receivers coach and then as quarterbacks since 2010, Fichtner has held a dual role for the past two seasons.

While the Steelers elected to hire a dedicated quarterbacks coach this offseason in Matt Canada, it has all be been confirmed that Fichtner isn’t going anywhere, even after the offense finished pretty much in the bottom five in every meaningful offensive category, including the worst red zone offense in the NFL.
