Coaching profile at Pro Football Reference

Michael Pettaway Tomlin (born March 15, 1972) is an American professional football coach who most recently served as the head coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League (NFL) from 2007 to 2025. During his 19 seasons as head coach, Tomlin never finished with a losing record, the longest streak in NFL history. At the time of his resignation, Tomlin was the longest-tenured head coach in the four major North American sports leagues.

Tomlin began his NFL career as defensive assistant with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Minnesota Vikings before joining Pittsburgh. As the Steelers head coach, he led them to 13 playoff appearances, eight division titles, three AFC Championship Games, two Super Bowl appearances, and a title in Super Bowl XLIII. At age 36, Tomlin was the youngest head coach to win the Super Bowl at the time. He is also tied with Chuck Noll for the most regular-season wins in Steelers franchise history.
