Could the Pittsburgh Steelers soon have a new head coach?
Mike Tomlin has been the head coach of the Steelers for nearly the last two decades, and has never endured a losing season. After a slow start to 2023, he helped the team rebound and finish 10-7 with another playoff spot.
But after this postseason is concluded, could we see the unthinkable and Tomlin depart? According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility to see Tomlin walk away.
"I don't know what Mike Tomlin is gonna do, but I can tell you there are people out there in the league who say that that's potentially an option," ESPN's Adam Schefter said during an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show. "That after the season, maybe he could walk away."
“They’re not firing Mike Tomlin. But here’s the thing that’s interesting. He’s got a year left on his contract. And there are some people around the league who believe Mike Tomlin could decide to take some time off, like Sean Payton did,” Schefter said. “Mike Tomlin gets to dictate what happens here, not the Pittsburgh Steelers. They’re not firing him, he’s staying on, but he’s staying on if he wants to. If he decides that he’d like to walk, well that’s a different subject. And maybe there’s a team out there, he’s from Washington, his wife loves Los Angeles, maybe one of them wants to lob a call into the Steelers to see if they could wind up doing something with him.”
If Tomlin decides to walk away, who would be the ideal candidate to take his place?
