Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin believes there should be incentives for teams to hire minority coaches.
On Monday's episode of Coffee with Cal, the coach discussed potential changes to the Rooney Rule.
"We've always taken it from the approach of, punitive if you don't interview minority candidates or things of that nature," Tomlin said, via Brooke Pryor of ESPN. "I just like the different approach in terms of spinning it 180 and talking about maybe incentivizing those that develop the talent and those that hire the talent."
A proposed idea would reward teams with improved draft picks if they hire a minority head coach or top executive, according to Jim Trotter of NFL.
