1972

Michael Pettaway Tomlin (born March 15, 1972) is an American football coach who is the head coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers in the National Football League (NFL).

1990

Tomlin graduated in 1990 from Denbigh High School in Newport News, Virginia.

1992

The others were Cowher (age 34 in 1992), Chuck Noll (38 in 1969), Bill Austin (38 in 1966), John Michelosen (32 in 1948), Jim Leonard (35 in 1945), Aldo Donelli (33 in 1941), Walt Kiesling (35 in 1939), Johnny "Blood" McNally (33 in 1937), and Joe Bach (34 in 1935).

1994

As a wide receiver, Tomlin was a second-team All-Yankee Conference selection in 1994.

1995

He graduated from the College of William and Mary with a sociology degree in 1995, becoming a member of Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity.

Tomlin's coaching career began in 1995 as the wide receiver coach at Virginia Military Institute under head coach Bill Stewart.

1996

Tomlin spent the 1996 season as a graduate assistant at the University of Memphis, where he worked with the defensive backs and special teams.

1997

Following a brief stint on the University of Tennessee at Martin's coaching staff, Tomlin was hired by Arkansas State University in 1997 to coach its defensive backs.

He stayed there for two seasons, before being hired as defensive backs coach by the University of Cincinnati.

2001

Tomlin was hired as the defensive backs coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2001 under head coach Tony Dungy, where Tomlin first learned the Tampa 2 defense that he would use in later coaching jobs.

2002

Tomlin was retained under new head coach Jon Gruden, and in 2002 and 2005, the Buccaneers led the NFL in total defense (fewest yards allowed per game).

During Tomlin's tenure, the defense never ranked worse than sixth overall.

2003

When the Buccaneers won Super Bowl XXXVII in January 2003, the team recorded a Super Bowl-record five interceptions, three of which were returned for touchdowns.

2006

Tomlin was selected by Vikings' head coach Brad Childress to be his defensive coordinator in 2006.

Two of the players on the Vikings roster were older than Tomlin, and Tomlin had been a teammate of Vikings' safety Darren Sharper while at William and Mary.

The 2006 Vikings finished with the NFL's eighth-best overall defense, but had the unusual distinction of finishing as the top-ranked defense against the run and the worst-ranked defense against the pass.

After spending 2006 as the Vikings' defensive coordinator, Tomlin was selected to interview for the vacant head coaching position with the 2005 Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers.

2007

Since joining the Steelers in 2007, he has led the team to eleven playoff runs, seven division titles, three AFC Championship Games, two Super Bowl appearances, and a title in Super Bowl XLIII.

At age 36, Tomlin became the youngest head coach to win the Super Bowl, a record which was later broken by Sean McVay in Super Bowl LVI.

Tomlin holds the record for most consecutive non-losing seasons to begin a coaching career with 17 and has never had a losing season.

Only Tom Landry (21) and Bill Belichick (19) have had longer such streaks at any point in their coaching careers.

Upon Belichick's departure from the New England Patriots following the 2023 season, Tomlin is the NFL's longest-tenured active head coach.

Tomlin was born in Hampton, Virginia, the younger of two sons; his brother, Eddie, is three and a half years older.

With only a year of experience as a defensive coordinator, Tomlin was hired on January 27, 2007, to become the 16th head coach in franchise history, replacing Bill Cowher, who retired after spending 15 years with the team.

Tomlin had also interviewed for the head coaching vacancy with the Miami Dolphins, a job that eventually went to former Indiana head coach Cam Cameron.

With Tomlin, the Steelers continued a trend of hiring head coaches in their 30s.

2010

Tomlin is the 10th African-American head coach in NFL history and the first for the Steelers franchise.

Steelers owner Dan Rooney has served as the head of the NFL's diversity committee and proposed the Rooney Rule, requiring that teams interview at least one minority candidate when hiring a new head coach.

Although Tomlin's ascension to an NFL head coaching job has been cited as evidence of the rule working as intended, Rooney himself disputed this, as he had already interviewed a minority candidate prior to interviewing Tomlin.

The Rooney Rule dictates that for all head-coaching openings, each team must interview at least one minority candidate.

But here's what's interesting: The coach who might be the Rooney Rule's greatest advertisement didn't benefit from it.

"Let me say this: Mike Tomlin was not part of the Rooney Rule," Rooney said.

"We had already interviewed Ron Rivera [then the Bears' defensive coordinator], and so that fulfilled the obligation," Rooney said.

"We went on, had heard about Mike, called him in and talked to him. He was very impressive."

Terms of Tomlin's contract were not officially released.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported a four-year deal paying $2.5 million per year, with an option for a fifth year.

He is the team's third consecutive head coach to win his first game, and the first in team history to win his first game against the rival Cleveland Browns.

2012

The elder Tomlin died in January 2012 from an apparent heart attack in Ocala, Florida, at the age of 63.

However, Tomlin hardly knew his birth father and was raised by his mother and stepfather, Julia and Leslie Copeland, who married when Tomlin was six years old.
