The Pittsburgh Steelers announced they have extended coach Mike Tomlin's contract through the 2016 season.
Tomlin, 40, was entering the final year of his contract, although the team had an option for 2013. Financial terms of the three-year extension weren't released, but Tomlin was the sixth-highest paid NFL coach for this season, according to Forbes magazine.

This isn't big news, but Mike Tomlin is a pretty good coach, so I'm glad he got a contract extension.
