About Al Wukits

  • Albert Robert Wukits (December 16, 1917 – October 15, 1978) was a professional football player in both the National Football League and the All-America Football Conference.
  • During his time in the NFL, Wukits played for the "Steagles", which was the temporary merger of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Philadelphia Eagles, in 1943 and "Card-Pitt", the temporary merger of the Steelers and Chicago Cardinals, in 1944.
  • These two teams were the result of temporary mergers brought on the league-wide manning shortages associated with World War II. However Wukits also played for the Steelers in 1945.
  • In 1946 he left the NFL for the AAFC, where he split that season between playing for the Miami Seahawks and Buffalo Bisons.
