Film Room: The Uniqueness Of Ladarius Green And What Pittsburgh Will Miss

By now, we’ve had 24 hours to digest the news of Ladarius Green’s release. We can, have, and will, continue to talk about the mistake that ultimately proved to be signing him. But the most relevant part is where the Pittsburgh Steelers are moving forward. What they lose with him no longer on the team, and how they can compensate.

One good point many have suggested is going to 4 WR sets, 10 personnel, or more broadly than that, suggesting JuJu Smith-Schuster can act as the next Green. It makes sense on paper. He’s a big guy who could play in the slot, physical, and dynamic enough to quench the Steelers’ thirst.
