Pittsburgh: So, Mike Tomlin is making it clear he’s not going anywhere. When reporters asked him about teams wanting to trade for him, he shot back with a simple, “Save your time.”
Last year, he was a bit more evasive, but this time he’s straight to the point. If teams think they can snag him, they’re barking up the wrong tree.
He explained that any coach can just say no to trade talks. If the Steelers don’t want him, they should just fire him. He’s got options, either take another job now or wait it out for a year with full pay.
The buzz about a potential trade came up because the Steelers aren’t planning to make a coaching change. So, it looks like Tomlin is sticking around for now, and he’s not looking to jump ship.
