As of the time of our 2019 conversation with Haggans, he had been dividing his time between Pittsburgh, Denver, and Las Vegas since his retirement.
Haggans made just four starts during his first four seasons with the Steelers, where he spent his entire rookie deal as a special teams, reserve, and rotational player.
