Kevin Greene, was one of the favorite players of Beer We Go Steelers and embodied the BWG Spirit, his time with Pittsburgh was short, only three seasons, but he packed the seasons! He always considered himself a Steelers which we will always love and respect.
GOD BLESS #91
Below is the official Statement of Mr. Arthur Rooney II:
We lost an amazing player and person this morning with the passing of Kevin Greene. His sudden death is a shock to us all as he was a close friend and teammate to so many people in the Steelers family.
When Kevin came to the Steelers in 1993 he had an immediate impact. Paired with Greg Lloyd, Kevin and Greg led a defense that became known as Blitzburgh and went on to play in Super Bowl XXX. Kevin’s energy and enthusiasm were inspiring for our team as well as our fans.
My condolences go out to Kevin’s wife, Tara, their children and the entire Greene family in this most difficult time. They will always be members of the Steelers family and in our thoughts and prayers. – Art Rooney II
