Former Falcons coach Arthur Smith interviewed Sunday for the Steelers’ open offensive coordinator position, according to the team.

Smith was fired by the Falcons earlier this month after the final game of his third season. He was the primary play-caller for the team, which had a 21-30 record in his three seasons.

Smith was Tennessee’s offensive coordinator for two seasons before becoming the Falcons’ head coach.
