Mike Tomlin Reportedly Not a Lock to Make NFL Return in 2027

The Pittsburgh Steelers are off to a solid start in the first year of the post-Mike Tomlin era. The team enters the weekend at 5-2 in the standings, with a first-place showdown against the Cleveland Browns on the schedule in Week 8. Tomlin, meanwhile, seems to be enjoying life as an analyst for NBC. Yet that hasn’t stopped speculation of him coming out of his brief retirement and coaching another NFL team in 2027. Front Office Sports’ Mark Maske focused on that topic Friday in an article detailing the noise surrounding Tomlin’s future plans.
