Former Steelers Wideout Calvin Austin Tears Up at Farewell Bash for Team Fans
Fans of the Pittsburgh Steelers received an emotional farewell from wide receiver Calvin Austin, who signed with the New York Giants this offseason.
Calvin Austin III officially left the Pittsburgh Steelers in free agency following his decision to join the John Harbaugh-led New York Giants — but not without a proper farewell to the Black and Gold faithful. In a short video posted to TikTok on Monday, Austin showed love to Steelers Nation as he thanked the fan base for support following the news of the Giants' signing. "I'm going to lie, being in Pittsburgh, I definitely knew and felt the love from the people in the city," Austin said.
"Whether that was being in the city, training camp, whatever, people know that Pittsburgh fans are passionate. I knew I was going to get a warm reception, but that — I was not expecting that. Ya'll showed out.
Thank you. You know what I'm saying? From me to ya'll, I love you guys.
