Steelers And Mike McCarthy Reach Verbal Agreement To Be The New Head Coach
PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Steelers and Mike McCarthy have reached a verbal agreement for McCarthy to become the club’s next head coach. McCarthy, a Pittsburgh native, would replace Mike Tomlin, whose surprise departure created just the third job opening in Pittsburgh since 1969. Tomlin stepped down earlier this month after his 19th season ended with a seventh straight playoff loss. McCarthy posted a 185–123–2 record across 18 seasons, 13 with Green Bay and five with Dallas. His resume includes a victory over the Steelers in the Super Bowl following the 2010 season.
