The Pittsburgh Steelers have ruled out JuJu Smith-Schuster for their Week 12 matchup with the Green Bay Packers.
JuJu Smith-Schuster injury update: How to handle Steelers WR vs. Packers
JuJu is having his first real setback of his rookie season.


This was expected after Smith-Schuster missed practice this week due to a hamstring injury suffered in last Thursday’s win over the Tennessee Titans. Even with a few extra days of rest, Smith-Schuster was unable to progress enough to play in Week 12.
One of the biggest surprise rookies of 2017, the rookie receiver has racked up 33 catches for 568 yards and five scores. He’s effectively been what fantasy owners were expecting of Martavis Bryant this season, but with his issues, it’s been Smith-Schuster taking hold of that No. 2 receiver role in this offense.
Fantasy Impact: With Smith-Schuster out, Bryant has a golden opportunity to recapture that No. 2 role in this offense with a big performance against Green Bay, who is allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to receivers over the last five weeks.
