The Pittsburgh Steelers’ former owner, Dan Rooney, is credited with creating The Rooney Rule in late 2002. In 2003, the rule was implemented in the National Football League. Dan chaired the committee and helped get the rule into place, which is how it got named after him. Now, Art Rooney II is the team president and owner of the Steelers.
