Corliss Waitman headlines the Steelers No. 3 countdown, taking over as the starting punter after a Week 1 injury last year and entering 2025 in the gig again. The No. 3 role for Pittsburgh has rotated through notable names—Corliss Waitman, Russell Wilson, Brad Wing, Matthew McCrane, and Landry Jones—before settling on this era’s heir. Jeff Reed stands out as the franchise’s best No. 3 kicker, thanks to pivotal Super Bowl runs and a high-scoring resume that places him just behind Boswell and Anderson in Steelers lore.

That No. 3 lineage isn’t just about who wore it; it’s about the impact on special teams success and kicker depth across generations. The highlight reel of No. 3s underscores how the Steelers have leaned on precise kicking and reliable punting to complement their core playmakers, shaping a legacy that fans follow closely heading into MetLife’s Jets showdown.
