Steelers demitem o assistente técnico Derius Swinton II por má conduta no ambiente de trabalho

O Pittsburgh Steelers demitiu o assistente técnico de times especiais Derius Swinton II. A decisão ocorreu na manhã de sexta-feira devido a uma violação da política do clube. Relatos adicionais especificam o motivo como má conduta no ambiente de trabalho.

Os Steelers encerraram o vínculo com Swinton em 29 de maio, após ele ter sido contratado em fevereiro como parte da comissão técnica do novo treinador principal, Mike McCarthy. Ele trabalhava sob o comando do coordenador de times especiais Danny Crossman, que havia sido contratado uma semana antes. Uma fonte da equipe informou à ESPN que a demissão decorreu de má conduta no ambiente de trabalho, embora o time não tenha detalhado a violação exata. Swinton não respondeu aos pedidos de comentários.
