JuJu Smith-Schuster and Ryan Switzer have quickly become best friends on the Pittsburgh Steelers. They've been seen working out together but now their latest video shows they can have fun together as well.
One of Smith-Schuster's latest posts on Instagram was of himself and Switzer re-enacting the final scene of the movie Titanic. The two receivers seem to be on a boat and Switzer finds himself playing the role of “Jack”—Leonardo Dicaprio's character in the movie.

It's fitting that Smith-Schuster and Switzer are great friends as both are heading into deciding seasons with the Steelers. For Smith-Schuster, the question is: can he maintain his level of play without Antonio Brown on the other side to help him.
After all, Brown garnered a lot of double-coverage that allowed Smith-Schuster to see plenty of one-on-one opportunities. That doesn't mean he won't thrive in the Steelers offense and with Ben Roethlisberger in 2019.
As for Switzer, the Steelers have a new-look receiving corp and Switzer is trying to work his way up the depth chart. Last season, Pittsburgh traded for Switzer from the Oakland Raiders in hopes he could provide a spark on special teams.
By the end of last season, Switzer found himself carving out a decent role in the offense as a slot receiver. This offseason, the Steelers signed Donte Moncrief and whether or not James Washington gets a chance makes things murkier for Switzer.
Nonetheless, the depth chart will look more certain after training camps begin in a few weeks. Until then, Smith-Schuster and Switzer will continue enjoying their offseason together.
