On Wednesday, February 16 former offensive lineman of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Jon Kolb will be visiting with Veterans at VA Butler Healthcare.

Kolb played with the Steelers from 1969 to 1981 and earned four Super Bowl rings. During his playing days, he was recognized as one of the strongest men in the NFL. He became strength and conditioning coach with the Steelers after his playing career ended.
