Steelers to Interview Mike McCarthy on Wednesday
In an important development for the Pittsburgh Steelers, an interview with Mike McCarthy has been scheduled for Wednesday regarding their head coaching position. This follows weekend reports indicating that the franchise was interested in the former Dallas Cowboys coach.
Mike McCarthy’s Coaching Journey
Mike McCarthy has been out of the league since 2025 after parting ways with the Cowboys. His tenure with Dallas concluded at the end of the 2024 season. McCarthy also participated in discussions with the Tennessee Titans, but that opportunity has shifted towards Robert Saleh, who is nearing a deal with the team.
Current Candidates for Steelers Head Coach
The Steelers are actively evaluating several candidates for their vacancy. Alongside McCarthy, they have already conducted interviews with:
- Ejiro Evero
- Jeff Hafley
- Klay Kubiak
- Jesse Minter
- Nate Scheelhaase
- Chris Shula
- Anthony Weaver
Jeff Hafley is no longer a candidate as he has accepted the Dolphins head coach position. Meanwhile, the Steelers are expected to interview Brian Flores, the current Vikings defensive coordinator, and Anthony Weaver is slated for a second interview.
Looking Ahead
The upcoming interview with Mike McCarthy on Wednesday could be pivotal for both the coach’s career and the Steelers’ search for a new leader. With various candidates in play, it remains to be seen who will ultimately lead the team into the next season.
