JuJu Smith-Schuster became an instant success on the field for the Pittsburgh Steelers during his rookie season in the NFL, but he is still looking to help improve the team in a big way.
This week, the wide receiver took to social media to announce that he is launching a campaign to bring NBA star LeBron James to the Steelers.
“Announcing my official campaign to recruit @KingJames to the Pittsburgh Steelers for the 2018 season,” Smith-Schuster wrote on Twitter. “LeBron has done everything in the NBA. He can be the best athlete EVER if he makes the move to the NFL and wins a Super Bowl with Steeler Nation.”

And just in case you thought Smith-Schuster was joking around, he appeared on FOX Sports’ “Undisputed” with Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe wearing a “King James” No. 23 Steelers jersey.

No one would expect LeBron to ever suit up for an NFL team, but it’s a fun way to pass some time during the offseason. And could you imagine if LeBron actually made the move to join the NFL? The sports world would never be the same.
