During his time with the Pittsburgh Steelers, former wide receiver Antonio Brown made it a habit of catching 300 passes off of a JUGS machine to work on his hands.
That routine helped make him one of the best receivers in NFL history, and very easily the best in the game during a 5-year stretch in the mid-2010s.
Now, Steelers wide receiver Van Jefferson is copying that routine.
Speaking with reporters Saturday from Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Jefferson said that he is catching 300 passes off of the machine daily to replicate what Brown did in an effort to take his game to another level and grab hold of the WR2 role for the Steelers.
