I update the top 500 all-time Pittsburgh Steelers at the end of every season. Since the Steelers started playing in 1933, 1,660 players have played for them in at least one game through the 2024 season. Readers frequently ask which Steeler I rank at the bottom.
I count 112 players who have played just one game wearing the Pittsburgh colors. It is hard to rank them individually based on such a small sample size. So, most are lumped together and collectively ranked 1,565. They’ll drop lower every year as a new batch of Steelers gets added to the list, but they are not forgotten.
