- Steelers lose potential head coach candidate to Dolphins
One of the Pittsburgh Steelers ' potential replacements for Mike Tomlin has been hired by the Miami Dolphins to become their next head coach.
Just a week after his virtual interview with the Steelers , former Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley is reportedly being hired by Miami to become the Dolphins' 12th full-time head coach in franchise history.
Hafley found tremendous success as the Packers' defensive coordinator, with the team ranking No. 5 in points allowed, No. 6 in turnovers forced, No. 7 against the run, and No. 8 against the pass in 2024.

While Hafley is off the table for Pittsburgh, head coach Sean McDermott, who was fired by the Buffalo Bills on Monday, would make an ideal hire for the Steelers as the coaching carousel continues to take shape over the next few weeks.
