On Wednesday, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster shared the following update on Instagram after undergoing season-ending shoulder surgery. Smith-Schuster injured his shoulder in last week’s win over the Denver Broncos and will be placed on IR in the coming days.
Blessed to have had a successful surgery this morning. There’s no other way to say it, but I’m heartbroken that I’m going to be out for the rest of the season. It kills me to have worked hard all year to help our team on the field and now have my season cut short five weeks in. I’ll do everything in my power to recover and I’ll put in another full offseason of work next year to perform to the best of my abilities next season. Thank you to the doctors and hospital staffs for taking care of me, and to the @Steelers organization for supporting me during this tough time! Thank you everyone for the well wishes too. I really appreciate all of the love. Be back soon
