Biography

To play in the NFL, you need to be tough. But Rocky Bleier took tough to another level during his long career with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Born in Wisconsin, where he excelled in athletics at Xavier High School in Appleton, Bleier played for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and was a member of the 1968 national championship team. He was all set for a career in the NFL, until the U.S. Army came calling, and Bleier answered the call to duty to serve in Vietnam. A shrapnel injury could have ended his pro career before it really started, but he worked hard and battled through the pain to return to the NFL. A fine runner in his own right, Bleier gained fame as the blocker for Franco Harris, and he was a big part of the Steelers’ four Super Bowl titles in the 1970s. Bleier told his life story in the book “Fighting Back: The Rocky Bleier Story,” which was also made into a TV movie. Bleier is a still a popular figure in the Steel City and tells his amazing story to others as a motivational speaker.
