Interest in Mike Tomlin, the American former professional football coach renowned for his success as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers in the National Football League (NFL), is on the rise.
Teams are reportedly trying to get him back to coaching after he stepped down to join NBC Sports as a studio analyst at the start of this year.
Not unexpectedly, the development captured the attention of Jason La Canfora, the award-winning NFL reporter, insider and analyst, who discussed the topic in an exclusive interview for Casino Guru News.
"Let’s face it, if you want Mike Tomlin, you probably have to give him your whole building. Trust me," the expert said.
La Canfora also pointed to the ongoing efforts by NFL team managers, presidents and owners in steering Tomlin back to coaching.
"In NFL front offices, there are already general managers, team presidents, and yes, even owners buzzing about the potential prospect of luring Mike Tomlin out of the broadcast booth and to coach their NFL teams on the sidelines. Probably with a lot of personnel control as well," the award-winning NFL analyst and expert explained.
La Canfora was also skeptical about Tomlin transitioning to a head coach role from his current position as an analyst, recognizing that such a change would require significant investments on behalf of the NFL team that may try to accomplish it.
"It would require a lot of money and a lot of power, and a lot of allure, and a lot of wining and dining to secure Mike Tomlin’s services, especially if you’re the New York Jets," the award-winning NFL reporter, analyst and insider said in conclusion.
