He was traded to the Steelers after the season for QB Terry Nofsinger. Kortas played for the Steelers for four seasons, and was a starting defensive tackle in '65, '67, and '68.
In 1967 he scored a touchdown on a recovered fumble. Although starting 38 games in his 4 seasons in the Steel City, Pittsburgh drafted DT Joe Greene in the first round of the 1969 draft, replacing Kortas.
In early September he was traded to the Saints for running back Don McCall, but was released a week later without playing a game.
The Bears picked him up, and he saw action in 3 games in his last season.
Teams: Cardinals (1964), Steelers (1965-68), Bears (1969)
