Eric Wood named ‘Legend of the Game’ for Bills vs. Steelers
Eric Wood never went far.
Wood was forced to retire after the 2017 NFL season due to a neck injury. Soon after, he ended up joining the Bills’ radio broadcast team.
On Sunday, his relationship with the team is being taken to the next level. Wood was named the “Legend of the Game” for Buffalo’s Week 5 matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers:
A familiar face will be on the field this Sunday!

Prior to kickoff, Wood will be one of the first ones out of the tunnel at Highmark Stadium. He’ll pump Bills Mafia up just ahead of the opening kick and team introductions.
Wood is just as excited to be honored.
“It’s special for me to be a Legend of the Game, and it’s quite an honor,” Wood said via the team’s website. “I’m back for each and every home game doing the radio broadcast for the Bills. So when there’s a home game, I get to see the Legend of the Game and it’s always great connecting with those guys.”
Get to your seats early to see Wood’s acknowledgement.
