"The move reunites Angelichio with new Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy, who worked with him in Green Bay from 2016 to 2018, when Angelichio served as the tight ends coach. McCarthy also interviewed former Packers quarterback Scott Tolzien, now the New Orleans Saints quarterback coach, for the Steelers' offensive coordinator job."
"Angelichio, 53, has spent most of his NFL career as a tight ends coach in stints with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Cleveland Browns, Washington Commanders and Carolina Panthers. Though he's new to the Steelers' organization, he has experience in Pittsburgh as he worked for the Pittsburgh Panthers as an offensive assistant and tight ends coach from 2006-10. In the last four seasons on Kevin O'Connell's staff in Minnesota, Angelichio worked with a handful of productive tight ends, including T.J. Hockenson."
Brian Angelichio is set to become the Pittsburgh Steelers' offensive coordinator, reuniting with Mike McCarthy after their work together in Green Bay. McCarthy will call offensive plays and has moved quickly to assemble his coaching staff following his five-year contract. Angelichio brings extensive tight ends coaching experience from multiple NFL teams and prior coaching experience at the University of Pittsburgh. He coached productive tight ends in Minnesota, including T.J. Hockenson. The Steelers face a fluid quarterback situation while retaining tight ends Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington among the offensive skill players Angelichio will inherit.
