It was not issued "making it retired" but then Von Miller wanted it -- it was "unofficially" retired

Nothing, just say it's retured? Not sure these even is a process.
but old media guide says this---which is what they mean by unofficial, not issued---

Officially, the Rams have retired eight numbers: 7 (Bob Waterfield), 28 (Marshall Faulk), 29 (Eric Dickerson), 74 (Merlin Olen), 75 (Deacon Jones), 78 (Jackie Slater), 80 (Isaac Bruce), and 85 (Jack Youngblood).
Von Miller now gets his chance to wear 40, with blessing from the family of former Rams legend Elroy “Crazy Legs” Hirsch. The Hall of Famer ..."
