Russ Grimm, who came in second for the Steelers head coaching job Sunday that went to Mike Tomlin, was named assistant head coach and offensive line coach of the Arizona Cardinals today.

Grimm, 47, held both of those titles with the Steelers. The job reunites him with new Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt, the Steelers offensive coordinator who had been considered among the leading candidates to replace Bill Cowher here, along with Grimm. The Steelers released Grimm from his contract with them after he requested it.

More details in tomorrow's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
