    ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Bears “recently called the Steelers” to inquire about a potential trade for head coach Mike Tomlin.
    Schefter also reports that “at least one team besides the Bears checked into the idea that it could somehow try to trade for Tomlin.” Any trade for Tomlin would require his approval, as the veteran head coach currently has a no-trade clause baked into his current deal. It’s a bold move by the Bears, but one that clearly shows their desire to nail their next head coaching hire after cycling through four different head coaches and interim head coach Thomas Brown since 2013. When asked earlier about the possibility of approving a trade to another team, Tomlin simply said, “Save your time.” We also know the Steelers don’t have any plans to move on from Tomlin, as previously reported by Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Barring an unexpected turn of events, Tomlin, who signed a three-year extension last offseason, will remain with the Steelers in 2025.

    Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports the Steelers are “not planning to make any move involving” head coach Mike Tomlin.
    Five straight losses left their mark on the fanbase and created some belief that the Steelers could move on from Tomlin. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that teams might call on Tomlin’s availability earlier in January. This was never really something that was set in reality, where Tomlin has been Steelers coach for 18 seasons without a losing record. Pittsburgh will likely see major change on the offensive side of the ball, and perhaps it’s possible that they move on from offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. Russell Wilson and Justin Fields are both free agents. There’s a lot to solve for the Steelers outside of Tomlin.

    ESPN’s Adam Schefter believes teams might call the Steelers about Mike Tomlin’s availability.
    In a run-on sentence for the ages, Schefter added loads of caveats including but not limited to teams wondering if they should inquire about the Steelers’ willingness to move on Tomlin. He quickly said he doesn’t expect a move to happen. Neither do we. The Super Bowl champion head coach has yet to see a losing record in 18 seasons on the headset. Pittsburgh is coming off back-to-back seasons with 10 wins. While the team hasn’t made it out of the Wild Card Round in seven years, it’s hard to pin that on Tomlin given Pittsburgh’s lackluster quarterback play during that stretch. Another first-round exit will keep the rumor mill turning, but all signs point to Tomlin sticking in Pittsburgh for 2025.

    The Sunday Night Football game between the Cowboys and Steelers is in a weather delay.
    There has been no word passed regarding when kickoff will occur but both teams warmed up as usual before returning to their respective locker rooms. Fans are currently allowed to remain in their seats.
  • PIT Head Coach
    Steelers signed HC Mike Tomlin to a three-year contract extension.
    Per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Tomlin is now under contract through 2027. Tomlin, who has yet to have a losing season in his 17 years as the Steelers head coach, continues to find ways to string together wins despite coaching the last several years with subpar talent at quarterback. He led the Steelers to a 10-7 record last season with the help of Kenny Pickett, Mitchell Trubisky, and Mason Rudolph but was one-and-done in the playoffs for the fourth time in the last seven years. Tomlin has an 8-10 career record in the playoffs but hasn’t won a playoff game since 2016. With 2024 initially thought to be a do-or-die season for Tomlin, the front office is clearly ready to commit to him for another four seasons. While many unanswered questions remain at quarterback with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields now in tow, Tomlin’s defenses continue to carry the load. Under Tomlin, the Steelers’ defense has ranked in the top 10 in points allowed in 11 seasons and was sixth last season. Despite his team’s deficiencies, Tomlin always finds a way to keep the Steelers in the fight. While the roster still has holes to address before they can be considered a Super Bowl contender, the Steelers are willing to give Tomlin more time to solve those problems.

    Steelers Owner Art Rooney said he believes HC Mike Tomlin will sign an extension this summer.
    Tomlin is in the final year of his contract but continues to be one of the top coaches in the game. While his offense needs a lot of work this offseason, Tomlin still managed to coach his team to a 10-7 record and a playoff berth this season and has famously never had a season where he finished below .500 in his 17 years at the helm. Tomlin has a regular season record of 173-100-2 and currently sits at 13th on the league’s all-time wins list. His last playoff win came in 2016, but the Steelers could be a quarterback away from looking like legitimate contenders in 2024.

    Steelers owner Art Rooney said he expects the team to hire an offensive coordinator “sooner rather than later” and that the decision will be Mike Tomlin’s to make.
    According to Rooney, who the team brings in as its next offensive coordinator is entirely up to Tomlin; Rooney added that he and GM Omar Khan share ideas regularly with Tomlin. The Steelers recently interviewed former Falcons head coach Arthur Smith, whose days as the Titans’ offensive coordinator (2019-2020) helped land him his first head coaching gig, but other candidates have also been vetted, including Texans QB coach Jerrod Johnson. Who the Steelers bring on as their next offensive coordinator could go a long way in determining Mike Tomlin’s fate with the team beyond 2024. Tomlin is in the final year of his contract and will be desperate to roll out an improved team after last year’s 28th-ranked offense did anything but carry them to their 10-7 record.

    Steelers HC Mike Tomlin said he’s open to a contract extension beyond the 2024 season.
    Tomlin enters 2024 in the final year of his contract but is willing to re-up with the organization he’s spent the last 17 seasons with. Tomlin has a 173-100 record during his tenure with the Steelers and has never finished a season below .500. He also led them to the playoffs in 11 seasons and a Super Bowl championship in 2008. While he hasn’t won a playoff game since 2016, Tomlin continues to get the most out of a roster that’s needed an overhaul at quarterback since Ben Roethlisberger began declining. In addition to being open to an extension, Tomlin also said the team will look to hire an outside candidate to fill their offensive coordinator position.
  • PIT Head Coach
    Steelers coach Mike Tomlin has informed the team he will return for an 18th season in Pittsburgh.
    Still yet to finish below .500 in 17 years on the job, Tomlin’s status was nevertheless in doubt amidst rumors he could seek an exit from the only team he’s ever known as a head coach. He will instead continue to prioritize the stability he has known in Pittsburgh and look to improve a coaching staff that had grown stale on offense under ex-OC Matt Canada. Tomlin’s biggest problem remains his post-Ben Roethlisberger quarterback play. Tomlin continues to do his job on his side of the ball while being one of the league’s most revered leaders. His return is good news for Steelers fans.

    The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports there is “chatter” in league circles the Steelers could consider trading head coach Mike Tomlin.
    “There has been chatter that perhaps the Steelers would consider trading Tomlin to Washington, Chicago or even Carolina to get back some picks,” was Russini’s exact report. Tomlin’s Pittsburgh standing has always been iron-clad no matter how dysfunctional the team has become on offense, but things have been reaching something of a breaking point in 2023. Lauded for his team-building prowess and defensive acumen, Tomlin could benefit from an Andy Reid-type change of scenery. Like any head coach good, bad, or otherwise, Tomlin would undoubtedly fare better if paired with an established quarterback. The most likely outcome is probably still Tomlin returning from yet another year in black and yellow.
