Steelers’ Firing of Matt Canada Brings Antonio Brown’s Final Push for Offensive Coordinator Job

Antonio Brown’s push to become the next offensive coordinator for the Steelers was in full force on Tuesday. Following the team’s decision to part with Matt Canada, Brown came out strong with two messages seemingly calling for the job.

The first tweet was a picture of the news drop by NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero with the caption, “Gametime on the way” with an emoji of a bee (aka his nickname, ”AB”).

Shortly after, the full-court press by the former Pittsburgh wideout continued with another message which was even more direct, reading “AB OC #Gametime.”

The endless push by Brown is impressive, at the very least. Unfortunately, it isn’t likely they would seriously consider him for the job. So it’s probably a safe bet the Steelers won’t hand over the keys to the offense to its enigmatic former wideout anytime soon.
