A Steelers Depot daily segment. A quick hit of some Pittsburgh Steelers-related stories that may not require a complete article but nuggets worth mentioning and passing on to you guys.
Your Depot After Dark for May 14.
DEVLIN HODGES MARRIED
Devlin “Duck” Hodges only appeared in eight games for the Steelers, but he built a solid following for himself in that time. While Hodges was with the team for two years, but he only got on the field in 2019. Ben Roethlisberger missed most of that year with an injury, and Hodges stepped up for part of the season, going 3-3 as a starter.
While Hodges’ NFL career didn’t last long, his life since leaving football hasn’t been too bad. He shared on Instagram that he recently got married to country music star Lainey Wilson. The two have been engaged for some time, and now, they’ve made their union official. It’s another fun chapter in Hodges’ story.
FRAZIER VISITS SCHOOL FOR DEAF
The Steelers have a rich history at the center position. They’ve got two in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Mike Webster and Dermontti Dawson. Maurkice Pouncey could find himself inducted there one day, too. Zach Frazier is currently manning that spot for the Steelers, and he looks like a rising star along their offensive line. Also, he’s done a good job representing them off the field.
Per WTAE-TV Pittsburgh on YouTube, Frazier recently visited the Western PA School for the Deaf. Frazier shared that he has deaf family members, so it’s important for him to show his support. He’s still a young player, but he’s conducting himself like a true professional.
JACK HAM JUDGING RIB CONSTEST
The 1970s Steelers are one of the best dynasties in NFL history, winning four Super Bowls in that decade. They had multiple Hall of Famers, with many on defense. That includes linebacker Jack Ham. He was a six-time First-team All-Pro, two-time Second-team All-Pro and eight-time Pro Bowler, being one of the league’s best linebackers.
While Ham’s playing days are long gone, he’s still a legend of the game. He’ll actually be a judge for the Hall of Fame Ribs Burn Off competition, as the Pro Football Hall of Fame stated on Twitter. Steelers fans in the Canton, Ohio area might want to take a trip to see Ham.
