Players, coaches, and front office members from the Pittsburgh Steelers, past and present, all took to social media to wish the legendary "Mean" Joe Greene a very happy 75th birthday on Friday. Greene (who wore #75 which is now retired), is arguably the most influential player in franchise history to rock the black and gold.
Greene was a Steeler his entire career, playing from 1969-1981. He won four Super Bowls, was named Defensive Player of the Year, twice, earned five First Team All-Pro selections, three Second Team All-Pro selections, 10 Pro Bowl selections, and a plethora of other accolades.
In the video below, you can see appearances from Steelers head coach, Mike Tomlin, WR JuJu Smith-Schuster, EDGE TJ Watt, DT Cam Heyward, CB Joe Haden, and many other legends including team president, Art Rooney II. Watch:
