Former Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive lineman and longtime broadcast parter on Steelers’ Radio, Tunch Ilkin, died Saturday at 63 years old.
Ilkin, who previously stepped away from the broadcast booth in June to focus on treatment to battle ALS, was in the hospital in late August battling pneumonia.
Very sad news. A great man and a great friend to many, Tunch Ilkin, has passed away. Thoughts and prayers are with the Ilkin family
