As meaningless as it seams, if you are like me, you’ve probably already thought ahead to what numbers the Pittsburgh Steelers rookie class should wear. To us, when players put on that black and yellow jersey, they are representing our fan base and what it means to be a Steeler.

That’s why I took the liberty of choosing numbers for each rookie the Steelers drafted in 2019:

LB Devin Bush: #55

The number ’55’ makes me think of speed. Though there hasn’t been a notable player to wear 55 since Joey Porter, Bush would wear it well. Devin Bush has a chance to be a transcendent linebacker, and as such, should wear a number like 55 and make it his own.
