Steelers Face Uncertain Offseason After Playoff Loss to Ravens

Pittsburgh's sixth straight postseason defeat raises questions about coaching, quarterback stability, and roster changes.

  • Mike Tomlin will return as head coach for his 19th season despite growing frustration over the team's lack of playoff success, including six consecutive postseason losses.
  • Quarterback Russell Wilson, who signed a one-year deal, has expressed his desire to stay, but the Steelers have yet to confirm their plans for him or backup Justin Fields, both of whom are free agents.
  • T.J. Watt and other team leaders have called for significant changes, citing poor defensive performances and a five-game losing streak to close the season.
  • The Steelers are expected to make adjustments to their coaching staff, with defensive coordinator Teryl Austin's future reportedly uncertain and potential interest in Robert Saleh as a replacement.
  • With $55 million in salary cap space and the 21st pick in the NFL Draft, Pittsburgh faces key decisions on roster upgrades, particularly at quarterback and wide receiver.
