The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed coach Mike Tomlin to a two-year extension with an additional option year, just a year removed from missing the playoffs.
The extension was expected because the Steelers' policy has been to sign a coach before he begins the final season of a contract. Tomlin's current contract, which averages $2.5 million annually, had one season and an option year remaining.
Financial terms of the extension weren't disclosed.
Not sure how seriously we should take Chad. But, this was posted about an hour via Chad Johnson's facebook page...."Coming soon to a city near you if your playing the Bengals, Batman= T.O. Robin= Esteban". I guess it'll be officially announced by the team sometime this afternoon if true.
No deal for free-agent wide receiver Terrell Owens is imminent, but his connections to Cincinnati are increasing.
Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer has been working out regularly with Owens in California and has been highly impressed, according to a team source. Palmer has gone so far as to tell Bengals officials what an asset Owens could be and how much talent he still has.
If nothing else, it has gotten Cincinnati thinking and talking about a receiver it hosted for a free-agent visit in March. Back then the Bengals opted for Antonio Bryant, but a team that has been short-handed at wide receiver knows it never hurts to stockpile talent at the position.
Owens also has another strong supporter in Chad Ochocinco, his close friend and reality TV colleague. The two have helped each other promote their respective shows on VH1.
Another Bengals source said Owens' agent, Drew Rosenhaus, visited Cincinnati this week, though it is possible he was there for Ochocinco's football camp.
Earlier this week, Rosenhaus said he was "very confident" that Owens would have a new team "within the next few weeks."
"We will see as we get closer [to training camp]," a Bengals source said Friday night. "Nothing now that I know of."
i think TO should come to San Diego if Jackson (Vincent) holds out... because its going to be a huge burden on Rivers to not have anymore tower running down either sidelines for the first 10 games.
And it wouldn't much of a change to have TO in the locker room while Jackson sits out.... he's also become quite a retard off the field.
I never said that. I'm saying Calvin Johnson alone is better than the joke of a receiving corps Cincy has. I know damn well that doesn't translate into wins.

The St. Louis Rams have intensified discussions in hopes of signing free agent Terrell Owens, according to sources close to the player and team.
The Cincinnati Bengals, as reported by ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter, are also engaged in talks with Owens.
Can't wait to go and see how Dez is.
