HBO will be debuting a very special in-season edition of Hard Knocks on Tuesday — “Hard Knocks: In Season with the AFC North” — featuring the Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns.
This marks the first time that HBO Hard Knocks has ever featured an entire division before (in any rendition of the program, including training camp) and the first time that the Steelers will be featured as the only AFC North team yet to appear on the program. The program’s debut back in 2001 featured the Ravens, while the Bengals have been featured twice (2009, 2013) and the Browns once back in 2018.
