Vince Williams Calls Smith-Schuster ‘Most Refreshing Teammate Ever’

I think most have by now forgotten their initial confusion, followed by angst, over the fact that the Pittsburgh Steelers used a second-round draft pick on wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, a player about whom, no doubt, many did not know a lot about prior to the draft. I count myself among them.

The 20-year-old has already quite endeared himself to just about everybody, from the fans, to his coaches, to his teammates. He has seemingly been used, at least temporarily, as their number two wide receiver in recent weeks, if you go by snap counts, and has delivered both as a pass-catcher and as a blocker in the run game, the latter aspect really being the catalyst for his extensive opportunities on the field.
