Steelers receivers already fighting over who will be replaced by Juju Smith-Schuster

The Pittsburgh Steelers selected wide receiver Juju Smith-Schuster in the second round of the 2017 NFL draft, which already seems to have sparked something within the team’s receiving corps.

Martavis Bryant, reinstated by the NFL just two days ago, did not seem to take well to Pittsburgh’s second-round selection, claiming Smith-Schuster’s selection indicates the end of the Sammie Coates era in Pittsburgh.

Coates clapped back almost immediately, sending fans into a frenzy:

Considering Bryant’s 2016 suspension, it’s quite likely he and Coates haven’t spent a lot of time together — it’s even possible the two haven’t met.

This probably doesn’t mean much, but it’s near impossible not to enjoy teammate-on-teammate beef. That the beef is between Steelers teammates just makes it even sweeter.

Steeler fans even suggested Bryant belongs in Cincinnati as a member of the Bengals.

I don’t think anyone’s opposed to this idea, as long as Bryant deletes his Twitter.

With Antonio Brown, Eli Rogers, Darrius Heyward-Bey, Smith-Schuster and these two in the building, it’s more than possible the Steelers don’t part ways with either player despite their second round selection.

Update: Mike Tomlin joined in on the fun.

Hopping in here is actually a solid move by Tomlin, turning what could’ve been a really humiliating situation for the team into one that can be taken a little more lightly. Still, it’s always fun to watch the chaos unfold in Pittsburgh.
