Legends of the Black and Gold will be honored during halftime of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ matchup against the Cleveland Browns. LB Jason Gildon, NT Casey Hampton, DC Dick LeBeau, and RB Willie Parker, the 2024 Steelers Hall of Honor class, will be celebrated for their remarkable contributions to Pittsburgh football.
Hampton anchored the Steelers’ defense from 2001 to 2012, earning five Pro Bowl selections and helping secure two Super Bowl championships.
Gildon terrorized opposing quarterbacks, racking up 77 career sacks, the fourth most in franchise history, during his tenure from 1994 to 2003.
LeBeau, as defensive coordinator from 1995 to 1996 and 2004 to 2014, orchestrated one of the NFL’s all-time great defenses, leading Pittsburgh to Super Bowl victories in SB XL and SB XLIII.
Parker’s blazing speed defined the Steelers’ ground game, highlighted by his record-setting 75-yard rushing touchdown in Super Bowl XL.
The Steelers will honor the Hall of Honor Class of 2024 this weekend at a dinner, and then during halftime of Sunday’s game against the Cleveland Browns.

The Pittsburgh Steelers wouldn’t be the same beloved Black and Gold symbol of excellence we all know and love without the efforts of Gildon, Hampton, LeBeau, and Parker. Here is to celebrating what they have accomplished in the Steel City.
