Terry Bradshaw led the Pittsburgh Steelers to four Super Bowl championships during his Hall of Fame 14-year career in the NFL. Spending the entirety of his career in Pittsburgh, Bradshaw won all his Super Bowls in the 1970s during the "Steel Curtain" era.

With Hall of Famers like defensive tackle "Mean" Joe Greene and linebackers Jack Lambert and Jack Ham, the '70s Steelers were undoubtedly known for their defensive pressure. Bradshaw never let Pittsburgh down on the big stage. The Woodlawn Leadership Academy graduate went undefeated in his four Super Bowl appearances (1974, 1975, 1978 and 1979), while also winning the game's MVP award twice.

The Louisiana native found life in football after retirement, joining FOX NFL Sunday since the show's inception in 1994. Hall of Famer and 13-year Oakland (now Las Vegas) Raiders defensive lineman Howie Long joins Bradshaw as one of only two original cast members from the show. Bradshaw gained fame for his Hall of Fame play and personality, and the eccentric, as always, 77-year-old has a story to tell.

On Monday, Bradshaw went to social media to announce that he is writing a memoir about his life. In a post on Instagram, the 1978 NFL MVP revealed the cover of his new memoir, "Looking for Terry." The photo shows him in a cowboy hat looking off into the distance. Bradshaw captioned the post, revealing that the book will be published by HarperCollins, will be available Oct. 13, and included directions on where to preorder a copy.

"The story I've been living my whole life is finally on the page," Bradshaw wrote in the Instagram caption. "Looking for Terry — my memoir — hits shelves Oct. 13, published by HarperCollins. It's the story of my life so far, and I couldn't be more proud to share it with you. Preorder your copy today."
