Last season, Pittsburgh Steelers’ secondary coach Grady Brown was the new guy in the room, one that made the jump from the collegiate ranks to the NFL, taking over a rather talented secondary in the Steel City.
Now, ahead of his second season on head coach Mike Tomlin’s coaching staff, Brown is no longer the new guy, having established himself as a strong voice in the defensive room, especially in the secondary. In steps former NFL head coach and longtime defensive coordinator Brian Flores as the new guy in the room.
Though Flores brings a vast wealth of knowledge and experience that trumps Brown a bit, the second-year secondary coach is excited to get the chance to work and learn from Flores within the Steelers’ defensive room, stating to reporters Wednesday prior to Day 2 of mandatory minicamp, according to video via Steelers.
