Former Steelers CB William Gay hired by Commanders as DB coach

A former member of the Pittsburgh Steelers is re-entering the coaching ranks in the NFL with the Washington Commanders, according to NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport.

A couple notable assistants: Former NFL QB David Blough is the assistant QBs coach, while former #Steelers CB William Gay is the assistant DBs coach.

Gay, 39, was a fifth-round draft pick by the Steelers in 2007, where he became an iron man of sorts. In his 11-year career, Gay did not miss a single game due to injury. He played 16 games a year for 11 seasons, including 15 playoff games for the Steelers during his career.
