Mike Tomlin sadly permitte T. J. Watt to take his decision..
Days after walking out of a postgame news conference during a question about his future, the Pittsburgh Steelers coach said that his fire for the job has “intensified” and that he expects to get a contract extension this offseason.
“I expect to be back, and I would imagine that those contract things are going to run their course,” Tomlin said at his end-of-season news conference Thursday. “Art [Rooney II] and I have a really good, transparent relationship. We communicate continually often. I don’t imagine it’s going to be an issue, and I imagine it’s going to get done in a timely manner at the appropriate time, but my mindset is to coach his football team.
