JuJu Smith-Schuster Catches Six Balls In Week 2
3 years agoPittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster caught six of seven targets for 41 yards and rushed for a three-yard touchdown in a 26-17 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 2. Smith-Schuster got off to a fast start, catching four of his passes in the first quarter but he was mostly quiet the rest of the way. The veteran wide receiver also went back to his low depth of target tendencies from 2020 as he averaged just 6.8 yards per catch against the Raiders after a healthy 13.0 in Week 1. His rushing score came on a jet sweep to the right in the second quarter. Smith-Schuster could be in line for a larger role going forward, however, as Diontae Johnson appeared to injure his knee on the final play of the game and needed assistance getting off of the field. Smith-Schuster will be a WR2 against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 3 if Johnson can't play.
