Mike Tomlin: Pittsburgh Steelers Training Camp talking about Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, leadership, getting back to the Super Bowl, Coaching trees, legacy & 2024 NFL Season Preview

The Pivot Training Camp tour is in full swing as we visit NFL cities sitting with players and coaches around the league bringing you exclusive interviews and sideline conversations to get you ready for the football season. In partnership with Fanatics, we are pumped to drop this episode today! You already know this is one of our favorite stops of the year, the land of The Pivot colors, but long before the black and yellow belonged to us at The Pivot, it was RC's legacy in Pittsburgh and anytime we get to go back, it's always a time to be had. With a roster full of talent and star players, sitting with anyone would be a great show but we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to chop it up with the man himself, the one, Mike Tomlin!! Heading into another season as Head Coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mike T gives us some insight to his thought process around training camp, paving the way for other coaches in the league and how loving football has kept him at the top of the game for 20+ years. No losing seasons, 2 Super Bowl wins, what’s The secret? Be open to change, willing to adapt and appreciate the people around you. While the biggest questions around the Steelers as the season kicks off is who will be their starting quarterback with the signing of Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, two talented and highly successful play callers, Coach Tomlin is more focused on the men they are and the leadership qualities each exemplifies. Football creates tough situations and Tomlin says it's his job to prepare players to handle business between the white lines, be ready to fight the fight and find ways to get through the difficult times as a team. Tomlin shares how coaching helped him become a better parent and now parenting has helped him become a better coach as players on his team are more the age of his own kids and he’s able to adjust to changes and better equip himself for being there for his players as he tries to bring out the best in them. 2024 goal? It's about winning. Tomlin knows the feeling of winning a Super Bowl and wants the guys in the locker room like Cam Heyward and TJ Watt, who have earned that championship feeling to be able to feel what it's like to have confetti rain down on them and set the tone for younger guys too. New episodes drop on Tuesdays at 12 p.m. ET and Fridays at 3:30 p.m ET on YouTube, with audio available on all streaming platforms including Apple, Spotify and Amazon.
