Jerrod Johnson Interviewing For Steelers Offensive-Coordinator Job

10 months ago

Houston Texans quarterbacks coach Jerrod Johnson is interviewing on Friday with the Pittsburgh Steelers for their vacant offensive-coordinator position, according to a source. Johnson has already interviewed with the Cleveland Browns, New Orleans Saints, New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles for the same position. His work with rookie first-round quarterback C.J. Stroud in 2023 has been noticed league-wide and has made him an extremely popular candidate for a promotion in 2024. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said the team will be hiring an outside candidate to take over the role on a full-time basis after they fired Matt Canada in the middle of this past season and had running backs coach Eddie Faulkner and quarterbacks coach Mike Sullivan split up the play-calling duties on offense for the rest of the year.
