So Ike is officially a coach now? Does he get paid? I didn't know this.

He is coaching catching, showing players what they shouldn't do it while trying to catch the ball.

Taylor: 'It’s a whole different world'

Former CB Ike Taylor is giving coaching a shot.

The Steelers first minicamp walk-thru was just finishing up, and Ike Taylor stood alongside Coach Mike Tomlin, talking to him and taking in as much as he could as the knowledge shared is invaluable.

It’s a sight that’s been commonplace over the last month, as Taylor has been working with the Steelers’ coaching staff during OTAs and minicamp, getting a feel for what it would be like to take that next step in football.

“It’s a whole different world,” said Taylor. “My boss is still Coach Tomlin. Just sitting in the meetings with the coaches, listening a lot, writing down a lot of notes, and every blue moon I will put my two cents in.

“At the same time it’s just good to be around the guys. The transition for me has been real smooth. It’s another phase in my life. I have to work myself from the bottom and try to get to the top.”

Taylor retired from the NFL back in April after playing all 12 seasons with the Steelers. He has begun to pursue a career in broadcasting, doing work for NFL Network and attending the NFL’s Broadcast Boot Camp.

But getting into coaching, working with the players, it’s something that interests him and when the opportunity arose, he had to give it a shot.

Taylor should not be coaching. His entire game was set on speed, not fundamentals.

I think it was just for OTA's. A kind of "trial run" program to experience the job. And I think Ike would make a great coach. His work ethic as a player was second to none.
