At Heinz Field Or Giant Eagle, Pittsburgh Feels Like Home To Troy Polamalu

Retired from the NFL for six years now – can you believe it’s been so long – Troy Polamalu doesn’t live in Pittsburgh anymore. He’s back out west. But when he returns to the city, as he did last weekend, it immediately feels like home again. It’s where Polamalu and his family put down roots for over a decade and his return to watch the Steelers knock off the Seahawks was a special one.

Prior to Week 6’s game, Polamalu met with reporters to talk how he felt coming back to Pittsburgh.

“In terms of coming back to the stadium, I lived in this community,” Polamalu told the media in a transcript provided by the team.
