Filling the shoes of a legend like Bill Hillgrove is a tall task for anyone. That’s the situation that new Pittsburgh Steelers radio play-by-play man Rob King finds himself in ahead of the 2024 NFL season. King has notably been involved more heavily in the offseason content for the Steelers this year. He’s conducted interviews for the team’s website as well as talked with former players for the team’s Time Machine videos.
King was a logical choice with his heavy involvement in the Pittsburgh sports scene for a long time. There was talk of going with someone from the outside for a new take on the Steelers.
