On Tuesday, the NFL announced that the Steelers were awarded rights to expand their brand and activities for the Republic of Ireland & Northern Ireland, as part of the NFL's 'Global Markets Program.'
After the announcement, the @SteelersIreland account was launched on Twitter and Instagram, and there was plenty of reaction regarding the exciting news.
