Pittsburgh Steelers Hall of Honor Class of 2021 announcement

The Pittsburgh Steelers announce their Hall of Honor Class of 2021. Stan Savran and #Steelers President Art Rooney II unveil the class of Steelers legends headed to the Hall of Honor.

With the Steelers rich history and tradition, it's never easy to narrow down the list of legends who belong in the team's Hall of Honor.

And once again this year, the men chosen truly represent what it meant to play for the Steelers, both on and off the field.

All of the members of the 2021 Steelers Hall of Honor Class have crossed the white line with at least another member of the class, with three of the four of them teammates at one point in their career.

The Steelers legends who will be inducted into the Hall of Honor for 2021 include Tunch Ilkin, Jon Kolb, Carnell Lake and Louis Lipps.

"It's a great time in Steelers' football," said Steelers President Art Rooney II. "We have some great Steelers going into the Hall of Honor and some great Steelers going into Canton next week. It's a great time in Steelers' football.

"Our selection committee, as well as our fans, come up with names every year and as we start to sort through everybody it does become difficult. There have been so many great players and people that made great contributions to Steelers football, that is why we are so proud to be able to do this every year.

"It was a special day to announce the 2021 Hall of Honor class, which four great Steelers, longtime contributors to the organization, three of them on and off the field. Jon Kolb played on the great teams of the 70s, Carnell was with us for a long time as a player and a coach. Made some special plays throughout his career. Louie Lipps played in a time when we didn't win Super Bowl, but he was still a standup, dynamic player. Tunch not only a great player, had a long career with us on the field, but an even longer career off the field as a great broadcaster for us. I'm excited to have these four people join the Hall of Honor."

The Hall of Honor announcement took place at Heinz Field in the FedEx Great Hall in front of fans, something that Rooney enjoyed.

"This is the first time we ever have done it with that many fans as part of the announcement," said Rooney. "So that was great. The last few days felt really special getting people back in the building, having people feel like they are part of Steelers football again. It's long overdue."

The Steelers will formally induct the Class of 2021, along with the Class of 2020, the weekend of Nov. 13 and 14 when the team hosts the Detroit Lions at Heinz Field. Ticket information for the Hall of Honor event will be available on steelers.com once available.
