The Pittsburgh Steelers took care of a major piece of business before the July 4 holiday on Friday. Last year, the Steelers signed head coach Mike Tomlin to a three-year contract extension, keeping him in charge of the team through 2027.
The Steelers are entering a season where they are going all-in to win a Super Bowl with quarterback Aaron Rodgers, before the team needs to rebuild the roster around a long-term quarterback. Pittsburgh is ensuring stability in the front office for the transition.
The Pittsburgh Steelers extended Omar Khan’s contract
Per an announcement by the Steelers on Thursday, the team signed general manager Omar Khan to a three-year extension.
“I am excited to announce we have signed Omar to a new three-year contract,” Steelers President Art Rooney II said via the announcement. “Omar and his team have done a great job over the past three years in constructing our roster through the NFL Draft, strategic trades, and free agency. We look forward to continuing that trend that will lead to even more success on the field.”
We have signed GM Omar Khan to a new three-year contract that will keep him with the team through at least the 2028 season.

Omar Khan believes the team can win a Super Bowl
Khan is set to enter his 25th season with Pittsburgh and has been the general manager of the team since 2022. The Steelers have made the playoffs for two consecutive years and are 29-22 over the last three seasons.
Khan believes the Steelers can win a championship in the upcoming season.
“I believe we are building a championship roster and look forward to the 2025 season and beyond as our goals continue to be to bring another Super Bowl to the City of Pittsburgh and our great fans,” Khan said.
But thanks to the extension, Khan has some breathing room if the Rodgers experiment ends the way it did with the New York Jets.
