Steelers coach Mike Tomlin signs 3-year extension

On Monday, the Pittsburgh Steelers signed head coach Mike Tomlin to a three-year contract extension that will keep him on the sidelines until 2027.

The financial terms were not disclosed by the team. Tomlin was entering the last year of his contract.

"Mike Tomlin's leadership and commitment to the Steelers have been pivotal to our success during his first 17 years as head coach," Steelers President Art Rooney II said in a team release.

"Extending his contract for three more years reflects our confidence in his ability to guide the team back to winning playoff games and championships, while continuing our tradition of success."

Tomlin, 52, became the NFL's longest-tenured coach after Bill Belichick left the New England Patriots at the end of the 2023 season.

Tomlin has a 173-100-2 regular-season record since taking over in 2007, with no losing seasons. He has an 8-10 postseason record, including a Super Bowl victory with the Steelers in 2008. His 173 regular-season wins rank second among active head coaches, trailing only Andy Reid (258).

"I am appreciative for this contract extension and thankful for Art Rooney II for his support during my first 17 years in Pittsburgh," said Tomlin. "We are continuing to work diligently to get back to where we belong -- sustained playoff success with the ultimate goal of winning the franchise's seventh Lombardi Trophy."
