Smith-Schuster turns Burfict block into celebration


Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster was suspended last week after his Week 13 block on Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict. Smith-Schuster stood over Burfict, who would have to be stretchered off the field.

On Sunday, Smith-Schuster was back, and he turned that vicious block into a celebration.

After Martavis Bryant caught a touchdown pass against the Patriots in the second quarter, Smith-Schuster reenacted the block with his fellow receiver. He pretended to lay a hit on Bryant and stand over him - just as he did to Burfict.

Smith-Schuster wasn't penalized for the celebration.
