One subject that has been a constant topic of conversation for Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster throughout the offseason has been his desire to spend more time playing on the outside this year, after essentially being pigeonholed in the slot in recent years.
Appearing from training camp on NFL Network earlier today, he did talk about his role being more outside this year, but explained that it is a function of the Steelers’ new offensive concepts being installed by first-year offensive coordinator Matt Canada.
“Honestly, with Matt Canada, the OC, the way he calls his plays, it’s the outside, too”, he said.
