Report: Steelers Interviewing QB Coach Candidates

The Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly in the market for a new quarterbacks coach.
In this story:

PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers are revamping their offensive coaching staff this offseason and could find themselves with a new quarterbacks coach in 2024. 

Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette said during an appearance on the "Chipped Ham and Football" podcast with Brian Batko, also a Steelers beat writer at the Post Gazette, that current quarterbacks coach Mike Sullivan is still in the mix to fill that same role next season, but the team is exploring other options as well. 

"Quarterbacks coach Mike Sullivan talked to, in the season-end review, if you will, Mike Tomlin and was encouraged by his talk with Mike Tomlin. It wasn't a foregone conclusion that he'd be gone," Dulac said. "If anything, it was probably a good chance that he'd be back. He interviewed for offensive coordinator positions in Las Vegas and New Orleans. He thought they went well. Obviously, he didn't get those jobs, but there's no guarantee he will be back in Pittsburgh."

Dulac said he can't say definitively whether Sullivan is still being considered to return to the team, but did say the team is interviewing new candidates and Sullivan "has not been told he's out."

Dulac also didn't mention any specific names that are being considered for the quarterbacks coach job in Pittsburgh, but All Steelers' Noah Strackbein reported previously that the Steelers was planning on interviewing Chargers passing game specialist Tom Arth and Titans quarterbacks coach/passing game coordinator Charles London. 

The Steelers also have new openings for an assistant quarterbacks coach, with David Corley having left the team, and offensive assistant, as Matt Toshomo departs as well. 

Dulac said the status of running backs coach Eddie Faulkner, who helped Sullivan fill the void left behind when offensive coordinator Matt Canada was fired, is also up in the air. But tight ends coach Alfredo Roberts and offensive line coach Pat Meyer will be back in 2024. 

Plenty of changes have already hit the Steelers this offseason and more could be on the way.
