Pittsburgh Steelers rookie wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster is becoming one of the biggest sensations in the NFL, and he’s not letting the scouts forget about it.
Schuster lit up the Detroit Lions Sunday night for 193 yards and a touchdown. He responded by tweeting a photo of himself beating the Detroit secondary with the caption, “‘Juju Smith-Schuster Draft Scouting Report: Will struggle to separate from NFL CBs, not a deep threat, not a precise route runner.'”

There are few things better in sports than when an athlete hits back at everybody who doubted him. Sometimes they do it openly, like Schuster did, and others just do it with their play on the field. Russell Wilson was a nobody coming out of high school, and he went on to win a Super Bowl.
He also made it very clear he didn’t forget about the people who thought he’d never make it.
