An England cap in 1984, Leicester-born Redfern made 241 appearances for the club, appearing in five John Player Cup Finals.
After starting his rugby career with Coalville and then the Tigers youth system, ‘Granite’ Redfern played nearly 50 of his games in the Leicester front row alongside brother Stuart.
He completes the Tigers Walk of Legends front row alongside Graham Rowntree and Peter Wheeler.
Dusty Hare, Rory Underwood, Sir Clive Woodward, Paul Dodge, John Duggan, Bleddyn Jones and Austin Healey form the Walk of Legends backline.
