JuJu Smith-Schuster named 2018 Polynesian Bowl Ambassador

USC Football’s presence at the 2018 Polynesian Bowl got a bit bigger on Monday with the announcement that former USC star JuJu Smith-Schuster will be among four NFL Ambassadors at the All-Star game in Hawai’i next year.

Smith-Schuster, now of the Pittsburgh Steelers, joins Tennessee’s Marcus Mariota, Seattle’s Michael Bennett and Baltimore’s Ronnie Stanley as this year’s Ambassadors alongside honorary team captains DeForest Buckner of the San Fransisco 49ers and Danny Shelton of the Cleveland Browns.

The dynamic Trojan receiver has been honored for his Polynesian heritage, hailing from Samoa, and athletic accomplishments by the Polynesian Football Hall of Fame in the past.
