Jack Lambert is a former linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He played college ball for Kent State, winning two All-Mid-American Conference linebacker honors. He won four Super Bowls in his 11 year career with the Pittsburgh Steelers and is recognized as one of the best middle linebackers in the history of the NFL. Selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the second round of the 1974 NFL Draft, many pro football coaches and scouts thought Lambert was too small to play linebacker in the NFL. However, he displayed strength at warding off blockers, quick feet, and extreme tenacity. These traits, coupled with intellect and ability to read offenses led to his quick ascension with the Steelers. In a nine-year span, Jack Lambert was named to nine straight Pro Bowls and was NFL Defensive Player of the Year once. Lambert amassed 28 career interceptions, 1,479 career tackles (1,045 solo), and 23-1/2 sacks. He led the Steelers' "Steel Curtain" defense to four Super Bowl Championships. He was selected to the hall of fame in 1990.
