Steelers Confirm JuJu Smith-Schuster Will Miss Rest of Season

The Pittsburgh Steelers will be without wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster for the remainder of the season, head coach Mike Tomlin confirmed on Tuesday. 

Smith-Schuster left in the first half the Steelers' Week 5 game against the Denver Broncos with a shoulder injury after a collision with Kareem Jackson. He was in noticeable pain leaving the field and was taken to the hospital for treatment. 

He's scheduled to undergo surgery on Wednesday and will reportedly miss roughly four months. 

The 24-year-old signed a one-year, $8 million contract in the offseason to return to Pittsburgh. In five games this season, he caught 15 passes for 129 yards and a touchdown.

Tomlin said the Steelers will look for multiple players to fill the void of Smith-Schuster. Pittsburgh is hosting free agent Anthony Miller for a workout on Tuesday. They also have Chase Claypool, Diontae Johnosn, James Washington, Ray-Ray McCloud and Cody White on the active roster.
