Former Pittsburgh Steelers coach Bill Cowher has told the Atlanta Falcons he intends to sit out another year of coaching and will not consider the team’s vacant head coach position.
Cowher was contacted by the Falcons after Bobby Petrino resigned as coach last week, league and team sources told ESPN’s Chris Mortensen. It was an exploratory contact, not an offer for the Atlanta job, the sources said.
Cowher told Falcons officials he is committed to a two-year sabbatical as he works as an NFL studio analyst for CBS.
