Jerome Bettis on Bill Cowher: “He’s the reason I am in the Hall of Fame”

There are few players in Pittsburgh Steelers lore who have endeared themselves to the fan base as much as Jerome Bettis did during his time with the black-and-gold. Bettis, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, has been a visible face throughout his retirement, and during the week leading up to the Super Bowl was on several shows talking about everything from the upcoming game between the Chiefs and 49ers, as well as some of his Steelers memories.

While joining the Rich Eisen show, he was asked about his old coach, Bill Cowher, who will be inducted into the Hall of Fame as a member of the 2020 Centennial Class.
