Sports Illustrated Backs Off Tomlin-to-Steelers Story
Sports Illustrated has backed away from Michael Silver’s exclusive story yesterday that the Pittsburgh Steelers had hired Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Mike Tomlin as their new head coach. Although the story is still online, SI.com no longer links to it from its homepage. In fact, the web site has replaced its headline announcing SI’s “scoop” with a headline reading, “Steelers dispute reports, say no hiring yet”. The Tomlin story is also nowhere to be found on Silver’s archive.
