It might all be window dressing but the Pittsburgh Steelers appear to be doing their due diligence in a search for a new defensive coordinator. Last week, Keith Butler announced he was retiring, leaving Pittsburgh in need of someone to run the defense.
Once the news was out, the foregone conclusion was it would be defensive assistant Teryl Austin being promoted to the position. However, in the last 24 hours it has come out that the Steelers have requested permission to interview New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator Kris Richard and now New York Giants defensive coordinator Patrick Graham.
