JuJu Smith-Schuster provides Browns with bulletin board-material ahead of playoffs
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster won't be dancing on any logos this weekend. Still, he did provide the Cleveland Browns with some bulletin board material ahead of Sunday's wild-card round matchup.
During his Thursday press conference, Smith-Schuster was asked if he had seen anything different from the Browns this season. The 24-year-old acknowledged that Cleveland is a good team but managed to slam the franchise in the process.
Of course, Smith-Schuster is no stranger to motivating opposing teams. The USC product made it a point to dance on opponents' logos before games this season. The Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals found the dancing especially disrespectful and used it as motivation to beat the Steelers in Weeks 14 and 15.
It's unclear if Smith-Schuster's comments will have the same effect on the Browns, though it's probably safe to say the Cleveland defense won't be too kind to the receiver when Sunday rolls around.
The Steelers beat the Browns earlier in the season, but Cleveland took the final meeting 24-22 to close out the year and clinch a playoff berth for the first time since the 2002 campaign. The last time Cleveland was in the postseason, it lost to Pittsburgh 36-33 in the wild-card round.
