Cassel, Vrabel Jersey Numbers Revisited

There was some discussion about what Cassel's and Vrabel's jersey numbers would be for the 2009 season. One question was asked about who's jersey numbers had been retired. Here is the list of retired Kansas City Chiefs jersey numbers:

3 Jan Stenerud
16 Len Dawson
18 Emmit Thomas
28 Abner Haynes
33 Stone Johnson
36 Mack Lee Hill
63 Willie Lanier
78 Bobby Bell
86 Buck Buchanan

Stone Johnson was never officially on the Chiefs season roster. His number was retired after his death in training camp in 1963.

One jersey number that is not retired but has not been issued since his death is Joe Delaney #37.

In my opinion the Derrick Thomas #58 will be retired especially due to his recent induction in to the Football Hall of Fame.
