Mike Tomlin Expresses ‘Extreme Appreciation’ After 13 Years In Pittsburgh At Dapper Dan Awards

Last night was a pretty big one for the Pittsburgh Steelers, well-represented among the honorees at the Dapper Dan Awards. Not only did Cameron Heyward win the Sportsman of the Year Award, head coach Mike Tomlin was also honored, the recipient of the Freddie Fu Leadership Award.

This was the second time during his tenure in Pittsburgh to have been honored by the Dapper Dan Awards, having previously won the Sportsman of the Year Award himself. Now, more than a dozen years into his stay in the Steel City, there is one prevailing insight into his time spent here.
