Though much of it has been speculation, the Pittsburgh Steelers and Rooneys have a reputation for not paying up when it comes to their coaching staff. Aside from head coach Mike Tomlin, one of the highest-paid coaches in American sports, the rest of the staff is viewed as lean. Not just in coaching size, though Rooney would argue the point, but in their salary, too.
Because coach contracts aren’t part of the salary cap, they’re not of public record and aren’t fully known. However, reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala offered insight into one scenario in which Steelers OC Todd Haley was let go by the team and took the same position with the Cleveland Browns.
