For just the third time since Chuck Noll was hired in 1969, the Pittsburgh Steelers will be hiring a new head coach. Mike Tomlin's run with the Steelers is over.

Tomlin's run as the longest-tenured coach in the NFL, a title he grabbed after the New England Patriots parted ways with Bill Belichick, is finally over. After 19 seasons, the 53-year-old Tomlin is ready for something new, having informed the team he is stepping down from his position as head coach after Monday night's blowout wild-card loss to the Houston Texans.

The Steelers confirmed the news Tuesday, with team president Art Rooney II saying Tomlin "decided to step down as our head coach."
