If JuJu Smith-Schuster has played his last play for the Pittsburgh Steelers, then he will have done so arguably at the low point of his popularity, or at least likeability. The four-year veteran drew heat a number of times during the course of the 2020 season, the latest being his statement that “the Browns is the Browns”, which the Cleveland Browns latched on to.
A number of Browns players ripped into and mocked Smith-Schuster heavily on social media after beating the Steelers last night, some of them using derogatory language in doing so. He had also previously been the subject of criticism for pre-game dances at center field, even from players on teams whom they did not play.
