New Pittsburgh Steelers S Jabrill Peppers will wear No. 40 for the Steelers. His new number was revealed with his addition to the team website after his signing became official this morning.
Recently, No. 40 has primarily been a linebacker number for the Steelers. It was worn by LB Devin Harper earlier this year, and in the past, it’s been donned by LBs Blake Martinez, Jamir Jones and Tegray Scales. The last skill position player to wear No. 40 for the Steelers was RB Tony Brooks-James, who wore it in 2019, the same season as RB Kerrith Whyte Jr.
