On Tuesday the Pittsburgh Steelers relieved offensive Matt Canada of his duties. This took everyone by surprise as head coach Mike Tomlin had given the impression that there would be no staff changes during the season.
Unfortunately for Tomlin, the situation with the offense and particularly quarterback Kenny Pickett just wasn’t improving at all and a change had to happen with seven games left. Pickett spoke to the media on Wednesday and said he had spoken to Canada and wished him well but knew he and the team had to focus on moving forward.
Kenny Pickett on Matt Canada's dismissal: "You hate to see it. You don't want to see one of your coaches lose their job. We all got to be better.
"Called coach, wished him well. We had a great conversation, but you got to bounce back quick and get ready to go."

Pickett’s teammates came out on Wednesday with votes of confidence for the young quarterback.
