Greene, who spent the last nine years as a special assistant for pro and college personnel for General Manager Kevin Colbert, was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1987 after spending his entire NFL playing career with the Steelers and becoming one of the best defensive tackles in league history.
