FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Mike Tomlin is the gold standard for hope, the possibility of fairness, and a catalyst for change in the NFL.
Tomlin, who became the 10th black head coach in NFL history when he was hired by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2007, has never had a losing season.
He owns a 154-85-2 record in his 15 seasons at the helm of one of the NFL’s tradition rich franchises. His teams have qualified for the postseason 10 times, and there’s one Super Bowl win on his resume.
