Former Steeler Brett Keisel Names Calf 'Nunny' After Hall Of Fame Scout Bill Nunn

By: KDKA-TV News Staff

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- Earlier this month, former Steelers scout Bill Nunn was inducted into the Pro Football of Fame. Now, another former Steeler has named a calf on his farm in his honor.

Former Steelers defensive end and two-time Super Bowl champion Brett Keisel, who grew up on his family's 1,000 acre ranch, has turned from football to farming. Keisel has a farm located outside of Pittsburgh and a lot of the animals are named after Steelers legends and former teammates, such as Bull Cowher and Dick LeBull.

Now, Keisel has added a calf named 'Nunny' to the mix, named after Bill Nunn. "This girl is a first round draft pick for sure!" Keisel said on social media.

Bill Nunn was posthumously inducted into the Hall of Fame earlier this month, credited with scouting numerous players who went on to have immensely successful careers in Pittsburgh.

During Nunn's tenure as a scout with the Steelers, thirteen players who were drafted by the team went on to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
