You knew the moment the news broke, Rich Eisen would weigh in. Mike Tomlin received a three-year contract extension Monday and outside of the Tomlin family, there’s no one happier to hear the news than Eisen.
“If Mike Tomlin didn’t get this three-year contract extension, he would be somebody else’s coach within five minutes,” Eisen said on The Rich Eisen Show Monday afternoon. “I’m telling y’all, he is one of the best.”
Eisen has been one of Tomlin’s biggest media supporters, defending and advocating for tje longtime Steelers head coach even during difficult stretches.
