Tomlin is also eager to get to work with Haley, calling it a ''ridiculous bonus'' that the former Kansas City Chiefs head coach was available. Tomlin isn't sure what the offense will look like when Haley is done with it but is eager to watch the process.

''Obviously, I think we need to have a defined personality, but that's centered around playing to our strengths,'' Tomlin said. ''That changes, of course, depending on what our strengths are. Obviously, we have a solid, franchise-type quarterback. We have some emerging outside talent at wide receiver ... Our personality, obviously, is going to be one that is built and geared toward our strengths.''
