While former NFL defensive end J.J. Watt never donned a Steelers uniform, unlike his brother T.J., he’s a big fan of Pittsburgh’s throwback uniforms. Watt called Pittsburgh’s 1970s throwback jersey with block letters and numbers his favorite throwback uniform in the NFLon That Other Pregame Show on CBS Sports Network.
“If I could only pick one, there’s so many good ones. I am personally partial to the Steelers block number throwback. I think the block number should be their main jersey, I think it’s just a classic, iconic. Makes me think of Mean Joe Greene, makes me think of those great Steelers teams.
