Throughout his 18 seasons at the helm of the Pittsburgh Steelers, head coach Mike Tomlin has been very good at managing egos, keeping players in check and pushing toward the common goal of winning games and chasing a championship.
Eventually, though, it becomes time to move on from players that are headaches, either behind the scenes or in public. And when Tomlin and the Steelers eventually do decide it’s time to move on, they end up fleecing the other team in the trade.
Moves for guys like Santonio Holmes, Martavis Bryant, Antonio Brown, and Chase Claypool come to mind when it comes to the Steelers having a talented player and then moving on via trade under Tomlin.
