On Monday morning, it was announced that the Pittsburgh Steelers will not be renewing their stadium naming rights contract with Heinz and therefore will be renaming Heinz Field.

It appears that Steelers fans won’t have to wait long to find out their stadium’s new moniker, either, as a report from 93.7 The Fan’s Andrew Fillipponi claims that Pittsburgh’s new home will be renamed Acrisure Stadium. Acrisure is a Michigan-based brokerage firm.

Heinz Field opened in 2001 and currently serves as the home field for the Pittsburgh Steelers and University of Pittsburgh football teams. Following the name change and re-branding, things will likely look a little bit different, including the giant Heinz ketchup bottles that sit above the endzone on the open end of the stadium.
