Vegas odds on JuJu Smith-Schuster’s next team

The NFL’s legal tampering period began Monday at noon, and while several players have agreed to terms with new teams, several are taking a wait-and-see approach to free agency. One of those players would be JuJu Smith-Schuster.

It was reported early Monday Smith-Schuster told his Pittsburgh Steelers teammates he will be heading elsewhere, but where will he land?

The odds makers at SportsBettingAG provided the latest odds for who is favored to get Smith-Schuster’s services for 2021, and the foreseeable future. Check them out below:

JuJu Smith-Schuster next team

• Jets — +225
• Raiders — +250
• Cardinals — +600
• Colts — +600
• Bears — +800
• Packers — +800
• Ravens — +800
• Chargers — +900
• Dolphins — +900
• WFT — +900
• Giants — +1200
• Patriots — +1200

A few notes of interest after looking at the above odds. First, the Steelers aren’t even listed. I am assuming the news of Smith-Schuster telling teammates he is gone influenced the odds makers to leave the Steelers off the board.

Next, you have to wonder if the Jets’ addition of Corey Davis puts a dent in their odds to land Smith-Schuster too. Not that they wouldn’t love to bring Smith-Schuster to the big apple to play with Davis, but you have to wonder if Smith-Schuster will be demanding top dollar on the open market.

Outside of the Jets, you can see players like the Raiders, Colts, Bears and Cardinals all being in the mix for Smith-Schuster in free agency. Nonetheless, it has yet to be seen where he will land. In the meantime, be sure to stay tuned to BTSC for the latest news and notes on the Steelers as they prepare for the new league year, Free Agency and the 2021 NFL Draft.
