Patriots WR JuJu Smith-Schuster comments on current role with team

New England Patriots wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has gotten off to a slow start this season, but he is embracing and adapting to his role.

The wideout has recorded 10 catches for 66 yards in the first three games, with just one reception for five yards against the New York Jets on Sunday. It’s been a struggle for the wideout to find his role in the offense, although it appears it is becoming more defined. He is taking on a more physical role as a blocker, as the Patriots are utilizing their running backs at a high level.
