JuJu Smith-Schuster – Stock: Up

JuJu had another 100-plus yard game going 13-for-121 and a touchdown on 19 targets. The Chiefs did a great job keying in and taking away Antonio Brown leaving others to step up and eat.

Juju did plenty of eating as he carved the KC defense and made some big plays. Juju is now at 18-for-240 and one touchdown on the season.

It is clear so far that JuJu is hungry in his second year and looks to put the sophomore slump in the trash and leave it there. He is playing just as physical as he was his rookie season.

If JuJu continues this play, it could help Brown more down the road. Of course, Pittsburgh will have to start winning for any of that to matter.
