VIDEO: JuJu Smith-Schuster Has Perfect Response to Jalen Ramsey Over AB Comments After Steelers Win
By Michael Luciano
Los Angeles Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey was up to his usual trash-talking tricks, but JuJu Smith-Schuster refused to get in a war of words with Ramsey and took the high road. After the Pittsburgh Steelers beat up Jared Goff and took home a 17-12 win, JuJu responded to Ramsey's belief that Smith-Schuster isn't as good of a receiver as Antonio Brown. JuJu didn't fight back, declaring that he is his own player and he's trying to make a name for himself.
Jalen Ramsey said pregame that JuJu was no AB.

Pretty on-brand response from a generally humble guy in JuJu.
Smith-Schuster has seen his production taper off a bit after Mason Rudolph took over QB duties thanks to Ben Roethlisberger's season-ending injury, but he's still putting together a more than solid third season. JuJu has 36 catches for 503 yards and three touchdowns on a 5-4 Steelers team that is still alive and kicking in the AFC North.

Ramsey might have gotten the better of Smith-Schuster on the field, but JuJu can walk away from Sunday night's game satisfied with another win for the suddenly red-hot Steelers. I'll bet he'll take that over 12 catches and 160 yards every time. AB, however, is another story entirely.
