JuJu Smith-Schuster recently voiced to the media that he wants to be an outside receiver in 2021. Here’s why the Steelers should politely decline.
Despite still being just 24 years old entering his fifth NFL season, JuJu Smith-Schuster has been one of the most reliable players on Pittsburgh’s offense since joining the team as a second-round pick in 2021. After his rookie contract had expired, the young Steelers wide receiver had the opportunity to test the free-agent market and flirted with the idea of signing with Baltimore or Kansas City before ultimately rejoining the team on a one-year deal.
