Steelers turn to beloved former player to honor late Craig Wolfley in broadcast booth

Steelers Nation was devastated to hear of the passing of Craig Wolfey on March 10, 2025. Wolfley, a former fifth-round pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1980 NFL Draft, played 10 seasons with the Steelers and was the color commentator for the Steelers since taking over for the late Tunch Ilkin in 2021. On Tuesday, the team announced Max Starks as Wolfley's replacement in the broadcast booth.

Starks will step into the booth as the Steelers' new color commentator for game day broadcasts. Starks has been a member of the Steelers' Audio Network broadcast team since 2021.
