Chiefs Beat: WR JuJu Smith-Schuster can expand his role

ESPN

Oct 19, 2022 · 8:32 AM EDT

Playing with Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs this season, more of JuJu Smith-Schuster's routes have been run from an outside position rather than from the slot.

Fantasy Impact:

Playing with the Steelers, JuJu mostly played the slot, but the Chiefs felt that moving him around could expand his role and potential in the Chiefs offense. As the story said, he busted out with two catches of more than 40 yards -- one going for a touchdown -- and the Chiefs’ first 100-yard game of the season from a wide receiver this past week. Including a 53-yard catch earlier in the season, Smith-Schuster has delivered the Chiefs’ three longest plays of the season. His per-catch average of 13.7 yards is best among the Chiefs’ seven leading receivers.

JuJu Smith-Schuster is out on the field catching passes from Patrick Mahomes.

Fantasy Impact:

The Chiefs are hosting the Packers on Thursday night. As the tweet went on to say, it's the first we've seen of JuJu since early last week. He's not expected to play but it's a good sign.

Chiefs Beat: WR JuJu Smith-Schuster most impressive player at camp

After an injury-riddled 2021 NFL season with the Pittsburgh Steelers, JuJu Smith-Schuster is starting anew with Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs. His consistency has made him the most impressive player at training camp, boasting an unprecedented level of chemistry with his new quarterback after working together for just a few short months.

Fantasy Impact:

Many are wondering how the loss of WR Tyreek Hill will impact the Chiefs offense this season, but it sounds like JuJu is stepping up. The story went on to say Smith-Schuster has also given a young secondary an extremely hard time, getting open practically on command whether it’s during one-on-one drills or team drills. On the plays when the coverage has been good, Smith-Schuster has used his size and physicality to muscle the ball away from defenders. While he'll have to battle TE Travis Kelce for targets, we have Smith-Schuster ranked highest among the KC WRs heading into drafts and consider him a WR3.

Chiefs Juju Smith-Schuster, QB Patrick Mahomes building chemistry

Pete Sweeney on Twitter

Jul 27, 2022 · 9:10 PM EDT

JuJu Smith-Schuster: "This offseason, [Patrick Mahomes and I] have just been working out. Every single day. Pat stays in Dallas. Pat calls. 'Hey we're throwing these days...' A lot of guys did that this offseason. Just building that trust. Over time... we're just building that chemistry."

Fantasy Impact:

It might be working. Sweeney went on to tweet the offensive standout of Wednesday was JuJu Smith-Schuster, who caught 3 straight passes from Mahomes to begin a 7-on-7 series. The loudest crowd pop of the day was Mahomes to JuJu in 11-on-11. Safety Juan Thornhill got turned around, leaving JuJu open deep, the tweet went on to say.
