Much of the discussion surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers in the aftermath of their season-ending 31-17 loss to the Buffalo Bills in the NFL Wild Card round has revolved around the future of head coach Mike Tomlin with the franchise. In fact, the topic of Tomlin’s future as the Steelers head coach became an even hotter topic when he walked out of his press conference when the subject of his contract was breached.
While it’s common practice for reporters to ask about contractual questions, the Steelers head coach evidently thought that it was a bit disrespectful for it to be brought up in the immediate aftermath of the team’s most disheartening defeat of the season. This sentiment was echoed by defensive tackle Cam Heyward, who felt as though there was a more appropriate time for reporters to discuss the subject of Tomlin’s coaching future.
