In case you have been living under a rock the past two days, Antonio Brown was traded to the Oakland Raiders.
That has caused a mix of emotions across the board with fans, but when it comes to players, they're all ready to step up the plate!
JuJu Smith-Schuster tweeted "I'm ready", in regards to taking over for Antonio's absence, but the best tweet came from a player who isn't even a Steeler.. yet!
One of the best wide receiver prospects in the 2019 NFL draft, A.J. Brown made it know that he is ready to be the AB that the Pittsburgh Steelers need! The former Ole Miss star tweeted that he is ready to wear black and gold, just not #84.
I'll be the new AB in Pittsburgh ...lol draft me . Just give me a different number.

The Steelers are in need of a new wide receiver and physically he is built like JuJu Smith-Schuster, so maybe A.J's tweet will actually be happening!
The 6'1, 225-pound A.J. Brown is coming off a breakout 2018 season. His stats for last fall - He caught 85 passes for 1,320 yards and six touchdowns while averaging 15.5 yards per catch. He led the South Eastern Conference in receiving yards and was second receptions. He was also fifth in the SEC in total yards from scrimmage.
Are votes accepted for the draft? If so, I VOTE A.J. BROWN!
Mike Tomlin - A.J. Brown seems to be the AB that the Steelers deserve! Take a closer look at him!
