Rookie Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster might not have learned his lesson after receiving a one-game suspension for violating a safety-related rule in Week 13 against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Smith-Schuster, with the help of teammate Martavis Bryant, re-enacted the illegal play in celebration of Bryant's Week 15 touchdown against the New England Patriots.
The celebration seemed to poke fun at the original play, in which Smith-Schuster issued a devastating block to Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict, then stood overtop the fallen defender as a means of taunting his opponents.
