After nearly signing with the Baltimore Ravens or the Kansas City Chiefs, fifth-year veteran wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster decided to return to the Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason, a system in which he feels most comfortable and in a scenario he believes will maximize his opportunity to revitalize his value as he hits the open market again in 2022. Part of that, as he’s said multiple times this offseason, was continuing to play with quarterback Ben Roethlisberger.
“He’s looked great. I was just telling everybody, he’s a guy that’s working on the sideline. When the offense is taking a break, he’s out there doing extra cardio”, he recently told Jim Rome on CBS Sports Radio about the 39-year-old.
