If you’re not doing anything today, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster wants to play video games with you.
With many people around the country sheltering in place in their homes and avoid social interactions due to the coronavirus pandemic, playing video games is an easy way to pass the time and entertain yourself.
Have you found yourself playing video games these days with the added time you have without going to school or commuting to work?
If this sounds like you, it puts you in the same camp as Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster who is itching to challenge all of you in Madden.
Smith-Schuster has been one of the best NFL players to follow on social media and he’s let it be clear about his fondness for video games, especially his Fortnite-inspired dances.
The Steelers top receiver sent out a call on Twitter looking for people to play him.
So if you’re a Baltimore Ravens fan and want to see what you can do with Lamar Jackson against a real-life Steeler, this is your chance to get in the game.
If you’re a Browns or Bengals fan who has endured a lifetime of taking it on the chin by the Steelers, this is your chance to get a little bit of revenge. Sure, it won’t exactly make up for decades of taking L’s on Sunday’s but catching a dub on a Thursday afternoon in Madden is a pretty cool consolation prize.
Even if you lose, think of the cool story you’ll be able to tell all your friends and family for the rest of your life. Think of all the social media clout you stand to gain. Just think you can turn this unfortunate situation we are all in into a little bit of a positive.
Are you the lucky one to play against Smith-Schuster?
