Falcons Bypass Andy Weidl; Aaron Rodgers’ Favorite Heads to Pittsburgh
Aaron Rodgers is enthusiastic about a potential addition to the Pittsburgh Steelers’ coaching staff. The offensive line coach position is reportedly set to be filled by James Campen, a former Green Bay Packers coach. Campen is a favorite of Rodgers, who expressed his admiration for him in a 2021 social media post. This development comes as the Steelers under head coach Mike McCarthy are shaping their coaching roster.
Andy Weidl Stays with the Steelers
In a significant decision, Steelers assistant general manager Andy Weidl will not be heading to the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons had considered him for their general manager position. However, Ian Cunningham, an assistant GM with the Chicago Bears, has been selected for that role. Cunningham will replace Terry Fontenot, who was let go following an 8-9 season.
Pittsburgh Penguins Continue Winning Streak
The Pittsburgh Penguins have been on a winning streak, recently defeating the Chicago Blackhawks 6-2. Their strong performance has resulted in five consecutive wins, positioning them with 65 points, tied for second place in the Metropolitan Division alongside the New York Islanders. The Islanders recently triumphed over the New York Rangers, who continue to struggle this season.
- Penguins’ last match: 6-2 victory against the Blackhawks
