In an anonymous player poll conducted by Fox Sports, Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin finished second in “NFL Coach You’d Most Like To Play For,” losing by one vote to Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell.
Campbell got six votes, while Tomlin received five. One important note is that players could not vote for their own head coach, so every player surveyed had to pick a different head coach around the league. This is the second year in a row where Tomlin finished in second, as last season he lost to San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan after winning in 2021.
