Patriots OT Chukwuma Okorafor Hints He’s Getting Better Coaching Than With Steelers

His tenure with the Pittsburgh Steelers ended on a rather sour note, and now as a member of the New England Patriots, offensive tackle Chukwuma Okorafor isn’t exactly holding back about his time in Pittsburgh.

Okorafor, who was benched in favor of rookie Broderick Jones ahead of the Week 9 matchup against the Tennessee Titans for reportedly something he said on the sideline late in the Week 8 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, signed with the Patriots in March after being released by the Steelers in late February.

Now at his first OTAs with the Patriots, Okorafor took a subtle shot at the coaching he received with the Steelers, specifically from the offensive line coaches.
