Mike Tomlin has always been a polarizing figure to Steelers fans. This season, though, the noise and calls for his job felt like they were coming in louder, and more often, than any season before.
This prompted rumors that the Steelers may try to trade Tomlin, who still has one year left on his contract, in the offseason. That said, Tomlin may be looking to take a break from coaching altogether.
Speaking on Sunday NFL Countdown, Adam Schefter speculated that the second-longest tenured NFL coach could look to step away and take some time off.
Schefter also mentioned that if Tomlin wanted to continue coaching, but wanted to do it elsewhere, that Washington and Los Angeles could be potential options, noting that Tomlin is from Virginia and that Tomlin’s wife loves the Los Angeles area.
