Steelers Target Overlooked NFL Veteran Anthony Weaver for Head Coach Job

TL;DR
The Steelers are advancing their head-coach search by inviting Miami Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver to a second in-person interview. At 45, Weaver brings 14 NFL coaching seasons and a proven defensive track record, including a Dolphins defense that ranked fourth in yards allowed (just over 314 per game) in 2025, making him an overqualified, potentially transformative fit to energize Pittsburgh’s defense.
