Former Steelers Coach Bill Cowher to Release Memoir

Former Steelers head coach Bill Cowher will release a memoir this June, he announced on Tuesday.

The book will be titled Heart and Steel and was co-written with Michael S. Holley of NBC Sports Boston. The book will be printed by Simon & Schuster and is available for preorder through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other outlets.

The book will focus on the life of Cowher, from his time growing up at Crafton, through his playing days at NC State and in the NFL and most importantly, his coaching career with the Pittsburgh Steelers and promises never-before-told anecdotes.

Cowher has been a cohost of The NFL Today since his retirement from the Steelers in 2007 and will be enshrined as part of the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Class of 2020 this summer in Canton, Ohio.

The 63-year-old coached the Steelers from 1992-2006 and finished his NFL career with a 161-99-1 record, won Super Bowl XL and was a three-time NFL coach of the year.
