Mike McCarthy’s inaugural coaching staff with the Pittsburgh Steelers has faced a setback with the dismissal of senior special teams coach Derius Swinton due to a violation of club policy, reportedly linked to workplace misconduct. Swinton had joined the team just 3.5 months ago as an assistant to special teams coordinator Danny Crossman. This change occurs during the Steelers’ organized team activities after a significant coaching overhaul, including McCarthy’s appointment following Mike Tomlin’s departure. As part of this transition, McCarthy aims to secure quarterback Aaron Rodgers for another season while searching for a long-term solution.
