The 2021 Steelers Hall of Honor Induction ceremony will be held on Saturday, Nov. 13, at Heinz Field, the weekend the Steelers play host to the Detroit Lions (Nov. 14). Each inductee will receive a solid steel football, which will replicate the original that was given to Steelers’ founder Arthur J. Rooney Sr. by the United States Steel Corporation and United Steel Workers in 1982 for the team’s 50th Season.

The Steelers’ Hall of Honor, established in 2017, is comprised of former players, coaches and front office personnel who were integral in creating and sustaining the franchise’s success dating back to when the team was founded in 1933.

The Hall of Honor Selection Committee consists of Steelers President Art Rooney II, Joe Gordon, Bob Labriola, Stan Savran, Andrew Stockey, and Tony Quatrini.
