The Pittsburgh Steelers are moving ahead in their offensive coordinator search. According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the team is interviewing former Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith for their open OC spot. The interview is taking place today.
If this interview follows how the team has been handling its coordinator search, it’ll be announced by the Steelers later today.
Smith was fired following three seasons as the Falcons’ head coach, compiling a 21-30 record with three consecutive 7-10 seasons. Previously, he served as the Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator, seeing success there. Smith is known for a run-game approach using heavier personnel, which fits the Steelers’ strengths.
