PITTSBURGH -- With wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster scheduled for shoulder surgery Wednesday that will sideline him for four months, Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin isn't looking for one person to replace his star receiver.
Instead, it will be a collective effort by players like James Washington and Ray-Ray McCloud to fill the void left by the fifth-year receiver, who will be placed on injured reserve.
"When you talk about losing a guy like JuJu and how he functions within the framework of our offense, usually you're talking about multiple people assuming the role in some form of fashion," Tomlin said Tuesday.
