The Steelers retired #70. The number was worn by defensive tackle Ernie Stautner.
Just one, Ernie Stauntner's #70. The Steelers decided during the 1970's that they had so many great players they couldn't afford to retire so many. It is generally understood however that you can't wear 12, 32, 47, 52, 58, 59 or 75 though.
The Pittsburgh Steelers do not normally retire numbers, however, they have chosen to not distribute several numbers. The only official retired number is Ernie Stautner's 70. The numbers 12, 32, 52, 58, 59 and 75 will probably not be seen in the near future. Also, I wouldn't expect to see 36 again anytime soon.
No, it is not. The Steelers will have only two numbers retired in their history. Ernie Stautner's #70 is one and on November 2, 2014, Joe Greene's #75 will also be retired.
