JuJu Smith-Schuster on his matchup with Jalen Ramsey: ‘He said so many cuss words I’d never heard of’

JuJu Smith-Schuster comments on Jalen Ramsey’s colorful trash talk.

One of the marquee matchups of Sunday’s game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Los Angeles Rams was between wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster and cornerback Jalen Ramsey. Smith-Schuster finished with three receptions for 44 receiving yards and was able to have a little fun at the expense of Ramsey and his colorful language.

“He said so many cuss words I’ve never heard of before,” Smith-Schuster said, referencing Ramsey’s propensity for trash talk. But Smith-Schuster did give Ramsey props for being very good while noting he was double-teamed a great deal.

In going back and re-watching much of the game it seems Ramsey followed Smith-Schuster in coverage in mainly man scenarios but not always in zone. Ramsey was also called for two defensive pass interference penalties while covering Smith-Schuster on Sunday. Smith-Schuster also noted Ramsey is more locked into a system in Los Angeles compared to his time in Jacksonville, almost implying this was a negative for Ramsey.

Honestly, the best part of Smith-Schuster’s post-game interview is it was clear Ramsey and all his reputation didn’t get in his head. From a statistical standpoint, things haven’t gone according to plan for Smith-Schuster but he remains the ultimate team player.
