| Tomlin signs three-year contract extension
By Mike Bires mbires@timesonline.com
The Steelers addressed another major personnel matter today. No, they didn’t sign wide receiver Mike Wallace. But they did extend the contract of coach Mike Tomlin.
One day after the Steelers signed first-round draft pick David DeCastro, Tomlin’s contract was extended three years through the 2016 season. Financial terms of the new five-year contract (two years remaining on his previous contract) were not disclosed.
“We are pleased to announce that Mike Tomlin will remain with the Steelers for at least five more years,” said Steelers’ President Art Rooney II. “Mike is one of the top head coaches in the National Football League and we are thrilled he will continue to lead our team as we pursue another Super Bowl title.”
Tomlin, 40, is in his sixth season as the Steelers coach. He became the youngest head coach in NFL history to both coach in and win a Super Bowl when he led the Steelers to a 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII.
“I’m excited that I will continue to be the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers for years to come,” Tomlin said. “I am grateful to the Steelers organization for the opportunity I have been given over the past five years to work and live in this great city, and I am excited to continue to work to bring another championship to the Steelers and the city of Pittsburgh.”
