Wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster teases new jersey number with the Patriots

New England Patriots free agency addition JuJu Smith-Schuster has apparently picked his jersey number for the 2023 season. The veteran wide receiver, who signed a three-year deal last month, shared a photo on Instagram on Monday with the caption “coming soon.”

A second-round draft pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2017, Smith-Schuster started his NFL career wearing No. 19. He moved to No. 9 — his college number at USC — last season when he joined the Kansas City Chiefs.
