Omar Khan Secures His Future with the Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers have extended the contract of their general manager, Omar Khan, for three more years, securing his leadership until the 2028 season.Khan, 48, took over as general manager in 2022, succeeding Kevin Colbert. This is his 25th season with the franchise. Under Khan’s direction, the Steelers have had a 29-22 record and have qualified for the postseason in the last two seasons, although they were eliminated in the wild card round on both occasions.Omar and his team have done an excellent job over the last three years, building our roster through the NFL Draft, strategic trades, and free agency. We look forward to continuing that trend which will lead to even more success on the field.
Art Rooney II, Steelers President
Since taking control, Khan has been proactive in free agency and trades. This year, he finalized important transfers, such as that of wide receiver DK Metcalf and cornerback Jalen Ramsey, among others. In free agency, his signings this year include quarterback Aaron Rodgers and cornerback Darius Slay. The Steelers also have 12 selections in the 2026 NFL draft, which will be held in Pittsburgh. Steelers coach Mike Tomlin signed a three-year extension last year, keeping him under contract through the 2027 season.I would like to thank Art Rooney II for his support. I believe we are building a championship roster and I 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 to our great fans.
