In a stunning revelation, former Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden has made a shocking confession about what he really thinks about the team’s coaching staff.
In an exclusive interview with our publication, Haden revealed that he was blown away by the Steelers’ coaching staff during his time with the team.
“I’ve played for some great coaches in my career, but the Steelers’ staff is something special,” Haden said. “From Coach Tomlin to the entire defensive staff, everyone is so knowledgeable and passionate about the game. It’s infectious.”
Haden, who played for the Steelers from 2017 to 2021, praised the team’s attention to detail and commitment to excellence.
“The Steelers’ coaching staff is all about winning,” Haden said. “They’re not just focused on developing players, they’re focused on developing champions. And that’s what sets them apart.”
But what really shocked our reporters was Haden’s revelation about Coach Mike Tomlin’s leadership style.
“Coach Tomlin is a players’ coach,” Haden said. “He’s tough, but he’s fair. And he’s always willing to listen and adapt. I’ve seen him change his approach mid-game to get the best out of his players. It’s truly impressive.”
Haden’s glowing endorsement of the Steelers’ coaching staff is a testament to the team’s commitment to excellence and its reputation as one of the NFL’s most respected franchises.
The Steelers’ front office and coaching staff have yet to comment on Haden’s confession, but sources close to the team say they’re thrilled to hear the former cornerback’s praise.
“Joe Haden is a class act, and we’re grateful for his kind words,” a team spokesperson said. “We’re proud of the culture we’ve built here in Pittsburgh, and it’s great to hear that it’s had a positive impact on our players.”
