The Steelers made several coaching hires on Friday.
The team announced that Tom Arth has been named quarterbacks coach, Zach Azzanni is wide receivers coach and Mateo Kambui will serve as an offensive assistant.
The Steelers website has both Arth and Mike Sullivan listed as quarterbacks coach.
It’s believed Sullivan will stay on with the Steelers with a reworked position.
Azzanni spent five seasons with the Denver Broncos before coaching last year with the New York Jets.
He was a wide receiver at Central Michigan University between 1994-1998.
He coached for several colleges between 1999 and 2016 before coaching the wide receivers in Chicago with the Bears.
The hiring ends the hope for some Steelers fans that were hoping Hines Ward would come back to Pittsburgh as wide receivers.
Arth would have worked closely with one of the best young quarterbacks in the game. Justin Herbert and the Chargers were fifth in the AFC in passing yards (4,312) and eighth in passing touchdowns (24) in 2023. In 2022, the Chargers were second in pass yards (4,791) and sixth in passing TD (26).
LA was his first professional coaching experience, Arth served as head coach of the University of Akron (2019-21), University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (2017-18) and John Carroll University (2013-16). Arth was two-time Ohio Athletic Conference Coach of the Year.
Kambui played center at Florida A&M where he was the running backs coach in 2019 before becoming a coaching fellow with the Denver Broncos.
Last season, Kambui was an offensive line assistant with the Atlanta Falcons.
