Jury Still Out On Steelers’ Next Announcer

We know who the Pittsburgh Steelers will be playing this year. We know when they’ll be playing each team. We don’t know who will be in the Steelers’ booth calling the game.

Since Bill Hillgrove retired in late February, the team hasn’t named his successor. Considering the season isn’t far off, the Steelers’ first preseason game just over two months away, they figure to name a replacement soon. Who will it be?

We don’t know. The favorite feels like Rob King, a local and known announcer who has worked Steelers and Pirates’ games. He hosts Pirates pre and post-game shows and when play-by-play announcer Greg Brown recently missed a game due to his son’s graduation, King filled in to call it.
