Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has declared himself questionable for his team's Week 5 matchup with the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, according to Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk.
Smith-Schuster is nursing a toe injury he suffered during the Steelers' win over the Cincinnati Bengals this past Monday.
The wide out has gotten off to a relatively disappointing start to the season, as he has logged just 17 catches for 258 yards and a touchdown. Of course, Smith-Schuster's lack of production has a lot to do with the fact that Ben Roethlisberger injured his elbow in Week 2 and will be sidelined for the remainder of the year.
Smith-Schuster, who played his collegiate football at the University of Southern California, was originally selected by the Steelers in the second round (62nd pick overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft.

With the departure of Antonio Brown, Smith-Schuster was handed the No. 1 receiver job by default, but has not yet really shined. Over the last two weeks combined, the 22-year-old has snared just six balls.
On the bright side, the Steelers picked up their first win of the season with their 27-3 rout of the Bengals in Week 4. Because of the middling state of the AFC North, Pittsburgh finds itself just one game back of first place in the division.
