One NFL insider says the Pittsburgh Steelers head coach thought about going elsewhere.
PITTSBURGH -- Earlier this week, Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin signed a three year extension with the team, continuing his reign as the longest tenured coach in the NFL. Tomlin is now signed through the 2027 season.
That being said, it is very likely that Tomlin was considering other options before making the final decision on his extension. "This is something that was toward the end of the season as the Steelers were struggling and their offense was crap. It was very real that Tomlin was considering options both now and after this season,". "And for the first time in his tenure as Steelers head coach, he was entering into what would've been lame-duck season, and it gave him the ability to think differently than he ever has.
All that being said, Tomlin's tenure as the head coach can be described with one phrase — positive consistency.
