Report: Steelers to hire Tom Bradley as new defensive backs coach

It didn’t take the Steelers long to replace recently resigned defensive backs coach Carnell Lake. Reports are stating the team will hire Tom Bradley, who was the former defensive coordinator for UCLA and Penn State, to fill the coaching vacancy.

The #Steelers are hiring former Penn State and #UCLA DC Tom Bradley to be their secondary coach, I’m told. Carnell Lake had resigned the position this week.

Lake, who served the position for 7 seasons with Tomlin was under heavy scrutiny for the majority of his tenure for the Steelers’ often suspect play in the secondary.
