The Pittsburgh Steelers ' countdown to kickoff continues to roll on ahead of the 2026 NFL regular season , with fans needing to wait only 91 more days until the Steel City brand of football hosts the Atlanta Falcons on September 13.

In the spirit of the countdown, we at Steelers Wire will take a look at the history of the No. 91 jersey and analyze which players wore it best.

Selected by the Steelers in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, Lee is the current No. 91 wearer on the roster. An important depth piece on Pittsburgh's defensive line, Lee is one the top backup options heading into 2026.

While Aaron Smith was an extremely close second, followed by Stephon Tuitt, Greene is arguably the greatest Steeler to ever wear No. 91.

Greene, signing with the Steelers as a free agent in 1993, played just three seasons in Pittsburgh and chose to receive his Hall of Fame ring from the team, despite spending more time with the Los Angeles Rams .

During his 15 year NFL career, Greene recorded 734 combined tackles, 160 sacks, and 27 forced fumbles. He also received five Pro Bowl honors, two First-Team All-Pro selections, and a place on the NFL 1990s All-Decade Team.

Greene passed away at age 58 on December 21, 2020, but his legacy will live on forever in the hearts of Steelers Nation.
