The Pittsburgh Steelers are expected to appoint former Atlanta Falcons head coach, Arthur Smith as their new offensive coordinator. This report has been confirmed by ESPN and the NFL Network Insider, Tom Pelissero.

In the 2022 season, the Steelers strived for steady progress but were hampered by coordination problems, struggling to move the ball with two different offensive coordinators. The team is hopeful that the induction of Arthur Smith could align the Pittsburgh offense back on track.

Smith comes with a wealth of experience in offense coordination, having served the Tennessee Titans for two seasons in the 2019-2020 period in the same capacity. However, his stint as the head coach of the Falcons was not as successful. Under his leadership, Atlanta lost 4 of its last 5 games, and Smith was often criticized for not harnessing his top offensive arsenal to their full potential.

Despite the quarterback issues that plagued the Falcons, the Steelers have shown confidence in Arthur Smith, anticipating that his prior experience and knowledge could be a substantial asset to iron out the creases in their offensive strategy.
