NFL Rumors: 3 Potential Destinations for JuJu Smith-Schuster
While we've already seen some wild trades, signings and franchise tagging around the NFL, free agency is right around the corner and expected to be entertaining to say the least. The Pittsburgh Steelers are one of the teams that have major decisions to make as they are in need of a starting quarterback and also have wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster who is set to become free to sign with any team of his choice. Let's take a look at where Smith-Schuster may end up signing:
Kansas City Chiefs
The high-powered Chiefs offense would be even stronger with Smith-Schuster added to their mix and even though he's only 24 years old with a long future ahead of him, perhaps the Chiefs go the one-year deal route to ensure it's a good fit. He was banged up last season and only played five games so teams may be reluctant to give him a multi-year deal. Regardless, he's used to it from the Steelers and signing with the Chiefs could be how this all plays out for the talented wide out.
Baltimore Ravens
It Antonio Brown had his way, he'd be on his way to partner with Raves quarterback Lamar Jackson but at the end of the day it could be Smith-Schuster who signs in Baltimore. They know him all so well from their battles with the Steelers and he could end up going from hero in Pittsburgh to public enemy #1. Something Brown knows all about as well.
Las Vegas Raiders
The Raiders have been linked to just about all of the big name receivers as they look to load up on offense for 2022. The team has yet to get over the hump and need to upgrade at wide out if they are going to get quarterback Derek Carr to the promised land. Keep an eye on the Raiders and if it's not Smith-Schuster, look for Las Vegas to either sign Allen Robinson or Amari Cooper this offseason.
