This time a year ago, it felt like a foregone conclusion that JuJu Smith-Schuster was going to sign elsewhere. The Pittsburgh Steelers’ poor cap situation exacerbated by pandemic made it seem likely that Smith-Schuster would price himself out of Pittsburgh. But he was hit by a cooler-than-expected market and ultimately, turned down the chance of more money to return to Pittsburgh.
Fast forward one year later and again, it feels like Smith-Schuster is on his way out the door. But Kevin Colbert made sure to leave it open.
Speaking with reporters Tuesday, including our own Jonathan Heitritter, Colbert said the team would look towards bringing him back.
