The Pittsburgh Steelers are likely to hire Mike McCarthy to replace retiring head coach Mike Tomlin. As the franchise announced at X, a verbal agreement was reached with the coach. McCarthy coached the Dallas Cowboys until 2024 and has been without a job since then. The 62-year-old knows Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers very well: both worked together at the Green Bay Packers and won the Super Bowl in February 2011 – against the Steelers.
