There's been a lot of talk within Steeler Nation as of late regarding Pittsburgh Steelers' wide receiver, JuJu Smith-Schuster. He's set to be an unrestricted free agent this off-season, and where he ends up is anyone's guess.
Earlier this week, the five-year veteran took to social media to bid Pittsburgh adieu. For good you may ask? Maybe just for the off-season, perhaps? Your guess is as good as ours, but Smith-Schuster made headlines again on Wednesday at an event in Dallas, TX where the young star hinted at the idea of catching passes from Dak Prescott:
The wooden locker rooms 😬💀 https://t.co/EEIRl78KhF

"The wooden locker rooms?" Shots fired at the Steelers?
Despite these comments, Smith-Schuster has made comments in recent weeks that it would be a "blessing" to re-sign with Pittsburgh.
Smith-Schuster, 25, has played in 63 career games, totaling 3,855 yards receiving and 26 touchdowns, all with the Steelers. The team has expressed in the past that they would love to keep Smith-Schuster on board, but this will be the most intriguing off-season for the franchise in recent years, seeing as how they will be on the hunt for a new quarterback, following the retirement of 18-year veteran Ben Roethlisberger. Outside of the QB position, the Steelers will need to address both the offensive and defensive lines, as well as the secondary, but the wide receiver position should not be overlooked. That's where Smith-Schuster can continue to be a huge asset!
What do you think of Smith-Schuster's comments today and where do you think he will end up signing this off-season? Would yinz like to see him stay in the black and gold? Click to comment below!
