The Pittsburgh Steelers interviewed Indianapolis Colts director of college scouting Morocco Brown for their general manager vacancy, the former announced on Friday.
This was to be expected after the Steelers requested to interview Brown over a week ago. Along with Brown, Colts assistant general manager Ed Dodds has also interviewed for the vacancy.
We interviewed the following candidates for our General Manager position over the past two weeks:
• John Wojciechowski (Green Bay Packers)
• Morocco Brown (Indianapolis Colts)
• Dan Morgan (Carolina Panthers)
• John Spytek (Tampa Bay Buccaneers)— Pittsburgh Steelers (@steelers) February 18, 2022
Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert is expected to step down from his role following the 2022 NFL draft. So whoever comes in to replace him may not get the full reigns of the draft.
Should Brown wind up getting the general manager gig, the Colts will be compensated heavily. As a part of the league’s initiative to reward teams for developing minority coaches and general managers, the Colts would receive an extra third-round pick in the 2022 and 2023 drafts.
Brown was also a finalist for the Chicago Bears general manager vacancy before they decided to hire Ryan Poles.
