1 day agoSources: Steelers finalizing hire of Brian Angelichio as OC
Brian Angelichio is finalizing a deal to become the Pittsburgh Steelers' offensive coordinator, reuniting with head coach Mike McCarthy.
When Ron Rivera took over as the head coach of the Washington Commanders in 2020, he brought long-time assistant Pete Hoener along with him to coach the tight ends. Hoener got an excellent year out of Logan Thomas. The following season, a promising young tight end named John Bates was ushered into the league. But Hoener was nearing 70 years old and ready for retirement.
