4 years agoPittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee) missed practice on Wednesday. The veteran wide receiver was joined on the sidelines by Diontae Johnson in the team's first session since their Monday night win over the New York Giants. It is possible that the Steelers are just giving their top receivers some extra rest on a short week ahead of their Sunday showdown against the Denver Broncos. Smith-Schuster played on 55 of 64 offensive snaps last week on the way to catching six balls for 69 yards and two scores. As long as Smith-Schuster is able to return to at least a limited practice by Friday he is likely to play Sunday. Consider JuJu a low-end WR1 for Week 2 as long as he suits up.--Matt T - RotoBaller
