The Pittsburgh Steelers are hosting a visitor at Acrisure Stadium on Saturday night, as country music star Luke Combs is holding a concert at the football stadium. Like any good host, one of the Steelers decided to welcome him to town, as Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett got on stage with Combs during his concert and the two chugged a beer together.

Pickett’s on-stage appearance wasn’t the only Steelers connection during the concert. Singer Lainey Wilson, who opened for Combs, is dating former Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges, and wore his jersey during her performance.

Hodges had a surprise season for the Steelers in 2019, coming from a rookie camp tryout to playing in eight games. He retired from football in 2022.

Combs is continuing his tour with a few other stops at NFL stadiums. He’s going to Soldier Field in Chicago on May 6 and US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis on May 13. Later this summer, he will be at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, Gilette Stadium in Foxborough and Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
