Isaac Williams is entering his second season as the Steelers' assistant offensive line coach in 2023. He was hired by Pittsburgh on March 15, 2022.
In his first year with the Steelers, the run game improved from ranking 24th in the League through the first half of the season, to finishing third-best after Week 10.Â
Williams came to Pittsburgh after collegiate stints at North Carolina Central University (2021), Morgan State (2018-20) and Northern Colorado (2016-17), where at each stop, he worked with the offensive line.
 In 2021, Williams guided an offensive line that helped the NCCU register its first three-game win streak and first winning season since 2017. The Eagles finished second in the Mid-Eastern Atlantic Conference (MEAC) with a 4-1 league record. Williams also tutored a pair of all-conference selections.
Prior to North Carolina Central, Williams spent three seasons (2018-20) working in the MEAC as an and offensive line coach/run game coordinator at Morgan State.
While the Bears did not compete in 2020 due to COVID, Williams developed All-MEAC tackle Joshua Miles in 2019, who participated in the East-West Shrine game and participated in the NFL Scouting Combine. Miles, who was selected by the Arizona Cardinals in the seventh round of the 2019 NFL Draft, was the first Morgan State player drafted since Visanthe Shiancoe in 2003 (N.Y. Giants).
Williams was a four-year starting offensive lineman and three-time captain at Alcorn State (2008-11). He earned all-conference honors as a junior and senior, and graduated with honors. Williams played one season with the Laredo Rattlesnakes of the Arena Football League in 2013. A defensive end and center, Williams helped the Rattlesnakes to the League's best record.
Williams earned his bachelor's degree in nutrition and dietetics from Alcorn State University in 2012, and then earned his master's degree in education leadership from the University of Northern Colorado in 2017.
Williams has also coached at Millsaps College, Clinton High School (Mississippi) and Sumner Hill Jr. High School (Mississippi).
