Legend John Stallworth Donates $1.2 Million To HBCU School<\/h4>\n

Pittsburgh Steelers legend donates $1.2M to Alabama A&M foundation.<\/p>\n

John Stallworth was a legend on the field as a member of the world-class Pittsburgh Steelers.<\/p>\n

And he’s a legend of the field as well.<\/p>\n

Stallworth, who played his\u00a0entire 14-year career in Pittsburgh, earned Steelers’ team MVP honors twice and was named to the All-Time Team in 1982,\u00a0made a big-time contribution<\/a>\u00a0to his alma mater on Friday.<\/p>\n

The John Stallworth Foundation and the Alabama A&M Foundation have formed a new endowment: The John and Flo Stallworth Endowed Scholarship … and the first gift to the new endowment is $1,214,721.<\/p>\n

The news\u00a0was announced following<\/a>\u00a0Stallworth’s commencement address at his old school.<\/p>\n

Stallworth, now 71, broke all the school’s records for receptions during his career, and did much the same in his Steelers career. He played in eight league championship games and in four Super Bowls … and he helped the Steelers of course win all four.<\/p>\n

Stallworth earned a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2002 and was inducted into the Black College Football Hall of Fame in 2014.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
