JuJu Smith-Schuster finishes 4th at Fortnite tournament, raises $50k for chairty

JuJu Smith-Schuster fight

Antonio Brown's young Pittsburgh protégé, JuJu Smith-Schuster, never did anything except praise Brown and look up to him as a role model. But in Brown's addled, ego-driven mind, JuJu was stealing Brown's thunder on the field, while wooing away Steelers fans off it, all on his way to becoming Pittsburgh's ne w favorite player. Hence, Brown attacked.

PITTSBURGH — JuJu Smith-Schuster and Bugha finished fourth in Thursday night's Twitch Rivals Streamer Bowl tournament.

The event, part of the pre-Super Bowl festivities, featured 16 teams of streamers paired with 16 NFL players, who were drafted by the esports pros. Smith-Schuster and Bugha were listed as favorites by oddsmakers in Las Vegas, and they did win their Game 3 matchup with Aydan/Kurt Benkert, Clix/Tarik Cohen, NickEh30/David Morgan and NateHill/Eddie Vanderdoes, but they struggled by comparison in the final game.

There, they finished behind Cohen and Clix as well as Kyler Murray, who got drafted by Tfue. COhen and Clix won the tournament with Tfue and Murray in second followed by Aydan and Benkert.

The tournament held a total purse of $500,000 to be given to charities of the players' choosing. Fourth place came with a $50,000 allotment.

Smith-Schuster, who has his own Twitch stream anyway, will be streaming again Friday night.
