Jalen Ramsey is back to his trash-talking ways.

The brash cornerback and his Los Angeles Rams will square off against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, and Ramsey is expected to line up opposite Steelers wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster.

Ramsey was quick to point out that he was handed tougher assignments when asked Friday if he had covered Smith-Schuster in previous games versus the Steelers.

"I matched up against Antonio (Brown) the whole time. Antonio was the No. 1 receiver there, not JuJu," Ramsey said.

When pressed further about the challenges in covering the third-year pro, Ramsey offered a blunt assessment.

"No disrespect to him, he's not Antonio Brown," he said. "I matched up with Antonio for two years and it was a good battle. And I held my own in those battles. And now I'm going up against a different person, different body type, different receiver a little bit. He can make plays. But I'mma play my game, I'm not really worried about it."
