JuJu Smith-Schuster in historic company, with or without Antonio Brown

PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers' offense will have a new feel in 2019. Antonio Brown has demanded a trade the Steelers were probably executing anyway. Le'Veon Bell and the Steelers will undoubtedly part ways after failed franchise tag negotiations and Bell's year-long holdout.

While Ben Roethlisberger was and is the central figure in the offense, JuJu Smith-Schuster instantly becomes his top weapon once Brown and Bell leave.

Whether Smith-Schuster can handle double-teams and beat top corners quite like Brown is still up for debate. What's not debatable is where his career is trending: upward at a historic pace.
