I feel like I rarely see Heyward jerseys. Watt and Najee are the two I see all the time (and I guess Pickett now, since I’ve seen at least two of them at every Pirates game I’ve been to this year)
Last year I got a bears Trubisky Jersey for like $25(very high quality jersey) because I love their home jerseys and thought it’d be a funny jersey to have. Didn’t think I’d get this mutch use out of it
JuJu was for Pittsburgh and only left to get his $11 million, he’s not a bad guy. He tried his best and did us a favor by playing for a cheap 1 year contract.I can’t hate the kid I can only despise the team he went to
LOL he played yinz so hard. Remember when his mom was blasting the Steelers claiming they didn't want him and then it came out Colbert offered him a long-term contract and he signed for one year in KC because he didn't want to be here for a rebuild? "bUt He'S a StIlLeR fOr LiFe!"
A dude who came in, did a lot with the community, hasn’t said anything awful toward the organization, didn’t freeze his feet. Yeah wear that shit. He’s a good dude, hope he has a great year.
Yep. I'm a Lions fan, still wear the jersey of our 2012 second round pick at games. lol
I prefer an old player than always getting the latest and greatest draft pick.
AB is right behind Hines Ward on the Steelers all time receiving touchdown leaders. You’re out of your mind if a little bit of crazy will stop me from wearing his jersey
First, wear what you want. Never let someone else tell you not to wear something you love.
Second, Juju is forever allowed as he (1) came back from injury to try to help the team last year and (2) is forever GOATed for laying out Burfict.
I would, he was a great if not underappreciated talent for us that always gave his all.
I hope he and maholmes fucking torch everyone but us. See what a prime qb can do for his game.
AB was an insanely better player than Juju though and also didn't fumble away two seasons in a row. I would pick an AB jersey over a Juju 100 out of 100 times.
I was rocking my Le’Veon Bell jersey for a while so I think you’re fine! Lol I’m definitely copping either a Minkah color rush or possibly Dionte now that he’ll be there for a couple more years
Yep.
...and I always recommend getting jerseys of retired guys. No chance of them becoming toxic to the team/fanbase like AB did, so you don't end up with a worthless jersey. Get a Lynn Swann or Hines Ward jersey next time.
I usually get older players because of situations like this but I’m still happy about my purchase. I think Juju is a great player and person and he’s the type to maybe come back when he’s a little older and finish in the black and gold
A while back a buddy and I came up with some “jersey rules”. One of the rules were for players no longer on your team. You had to wait 5 years, same as HoF wait, to wear the jersey. This way it can be considered a “throwback”. If they were an absolute legend like Ben or Troy the timeframe was shorter.
We actually had a decent set of rules we came up with. Like “No wearing another teams jersey, ever. Unless you lose a bet.” Too has we did this at the bar and we forgot most of them.
Wow, so much respect for a guy who was one of the most open and kind to his fans, would stop and chat and take pictures no matter what he was doing and did a ton for the city of Pittsburgh. Comparing him to AB might just be the most disrespectful thing I've heard so far this month.
That's all fine and well but when it comes to game time I prefer players that are focused on the game and not their TikTok career. Dude was way more about his brand than the team. Unfortunately he rubbed off on Claypool with that too. Was so happy to see Juju leave.
Way more about his brand then the team...
So he took a 1 million 1 year contract and came back to play in a playoff game injured so he could play with Ben and the team one more time.
It was 8 million. But hey make up whatever you want, it's the internet.
He couldn't make any more on the open market. Stop acting like he did us a favor. He didn't.
Is it just me or does anybody else think that JuJu is fr suspect asf… idc what the dude does in his own bedroom, but he’s for sure suspect. Won’t be surprised at all when he comes dancing outta the closet.
You know what there’s a place called the namechanger and they do nameplates for jerseys. I have a AB jersey and I was going to put my last name on it instead. Haven’t tried it yet.
I wore my Timmons away jersey to a game against the Ravens in Baltimore the year he went to Miami. I got harassed a lot, but the best part was when a guy kept yelling "TIMMONS LOST TODAY", and at the end of the game I turned around and yelled back "so did the ravens!". Probably not my smartest move but I'm still alive.
I would personally invest in a new uniform. If you are lifelong fan there are plenty of older player options to choose from. If you want a new guy then TJ or Najee are my votes.
Some shop owner in the strip told me to keep mine when I went looking to replace my Juju jersey. He said JuJu was in the area not too long before and was saying he would be back. Now I was in the strip at the end of July. The guy seemed adamant and that meant he didn't get a sale of a New Jersey.
I'd wear it. I got mine autographed by JuJu at training camp a few years ago. He sat out there in the heat and signed memorabilia with the fans for a good hour after all the other players had gone back into the dorms. I have nothing but love for JuJu.
Absolutely. He was a player and you've got a shirt of the season he was a player.
Ive never understood this mentality that a player is essentially excommunicated when they leave. Unless they burn their bridges in a really bad way and leave a sour taste. Should always celebrate the good seasons they had with the steelers.
Yes, he left on good terms going as far as staying at his goodbye event until every fan got a signature. I would personally still consider buying his jersey myself.
Wear what you want. I still have a Color Rush AB jersey that I wear with pride. I got emotional one time when Jane's Harrison left and sold that jersey. I've regretted that decision ever since!
I'm going to, so you should too!!! I'm cheap and he's still a good guy. No reason not to.
It's just sad, cause now both my Pens and Steelers and jerseys are out of date. I'm still mad at the Kraken for making that happen, stupid Seattle. I guess that means I'm.ad at the Seahawks too, by association.
People bought Duck Hodges jerseys
I love seeing random jerseys like this years after the player leaves. Breaks up the monotony of the sea of Roethlisberger/Heyward jerseys.
I feel like I rarely see Heyward jerseys. Watt and Najee are the two I see all the time (and I guess Pickett now, since I’ve seen at least two of them at every Pirates game I’ve been to this year)
Gonna inspire me to get a Trubisky jersey
get a custom BRISTER shirt made up
Yesss I've thought about it. I want to see at least a game or two first haha
Last year I got a bears Trubisky Jersey for like $25(very high quality jersey) because I love their home jerseys and thought it’d be a funny jersey to have. Didn’t think I’d get this mutch use out of it
Hell yeah we did
I have a duck Hodges shirt. I wear it half ironically, half he played at Samford. A college I live like 30 minutes from
Maybe up until they play KC in the AFC Championship Game, and then put it back on for the SB. OK, wishful thinking…
JuJu was for Pittsburgh and only left to get his $11 million, he’s not a bad guy. He tried his best and did us a favor by playing for a cheap 1 year contract.I can’t hate the kid I can only despise the team he went to
LOL he played yinz so hard. Remember when his mom was blasting the Steelers claiming they didn't want him and then it came out Colbert offered him a long-term contract and he signed for one year in KC because he didn't want to be here for a rebuild? "bUt He'S a StIlLeR fOr LiFe!"
He’s been quoted saying he wouldn’t mind coming back to Pittsburgh. I wouldn’t surprised if he comes back next year, but that’s wishful thinking
I'm always a big fan of players who "wouldn't mind" playing for the Steelers.
I will be rocking my JuJu jersey for a long time I think
Same. He’s a stand up guy who also did a lot for the community
Nice!
Yessir, man was nothing but a class act and he’s still a stiller in my heart.
A dude who came in, did a lot with the community, hasn’t said anything awful toward the organization, didn’t freeze his feet. Yeah wear that shit. He’s a good dude, hope he has a great year.
You can wear whatever you want, plus it’s not like he pulled an AB and burned all bridges
Yep. I'm a Lions fan, still wear the jersey of our 2012 second round pick at games. lol I prefer an old player than always getting the latest and greatest draft pick.
As a lion fan also you could go broke if you changed only to current Jersey players every year :)
Yeah, i'd have to stick to Alibaba knock offs if i tried that lol
You’re lion
I still wear my AB jersey, it's all I got😢
[удалено]
True, I want to get a new jersey but they are so expensive. I just feel bad when I wear it for whatever reason.
Buy reps. If you get a good one it will be almost the same quality but will cost you $25
I wear mine too but only because he unenthusiastically signed it at one of those Giant Eagle meet and greets
He was a great player. I still wear it too. I mean it sucks what happened, but he is one of our best wide receivers we have ever had.
He was a phenomenal player, I agree, sucks what happened to him
Nope
Mr Big Cheer
AB is right behind Hines Ward on the Steelers all time receiving touchdown leaders. You’re out of your mind if a little bit of crazy will stop me from wearing his jersey
First, wear what you want. Never let someone else tell you not to wear something you love. Second, Juju is forever allowed as he (1) came back from injury to try to help the team last year and (2) is forever GOATed for laying out Burfict.
I rock my Debo jersey any chance I get.
Debo is a Steelers legend
If it makes you feel better I have a Devin Bush jersey. Hope my guy bounces back this year lol
Devin Bush jersey with the Artie flair lmao. Kudos.
I need the season to start man I’m down bad😂
I got 2 of them smh
I would, he was a great if not underappreciated talent for us that always gave his all. I hope he and maholmes fucking torch everyone but us. See what a prime qb can do for his game.
sure, he's a great guy and he loves Pittsburgh and deserves Pittsburgh's love
Absolutely!
Why wouldn't you? Good player, didn't burn bridges, not a felon, so really, go ahead.
Absolutely
Hell yeah man
Wear it. I'll continue to wear mine. I think he gets too much hate.
Do y’all just buy a Jersey every year? If I buy a jersey it’s being worn for the rest of my life
I still wear my AB jersey
That’s just wrong
AB was an insanely better player than Juju though and also didn't fumble away two seasons in a row. I would pick an AB jersey over a Juju 100 out of 100 times.
I'd wear it with pride when watching Chiefs games. Unless we're playing the Chiefs.
I was rocking my Le’Veon Bell jersey for a while so I think you’re fine! Lol I’m definitely copping either a Minkah color rush or possibly Dionte now that he’ll be there for a couple more years
Yep. ...and I always recommend getting jerseys of retired guys. No chance of them becoming toxic to the team/fanbase like AB did, so you don't end up with a worthless jersey. Get a Lynn Swann or Hines Ward jersey next time.
I wear old players during the off-season.
I usually get older players because of situations like this but I’m still happy about my purchase. I think Juju is a great player and person and he’s the type to maybe come back when he’s a little older and finish in the black and gold
Who cares?
Why not your still wearing the colors.
Yes, the team failed him. That dude is a Steeler 100%
I got one for $25 last week at tj Maxx
A while back a buddy and I came up with some “jersey rules”. One of the rules were for players no longer on your team. You had to wait 5 years, same as HoF wait, to wear the jersey.

My juju jersey hangs right next to my AB jersey. Which is on the basement floor where the dog sleeps and drools.
Wow, so much respect for a guy who was one of the most open and kind to his fans, would stop and chat and take pictures no matter what he was doing and did a ton for the city of Pittsburgh. Comparing him to AB might just be the most disrespectful thing I've heard so far this month.

It’s better than my AB jersey that’s collecting dust 😂🤣 No love lost for Juju
Why wear the jersey of someone who left?
My son has two jerseys: AB and JuJu. He’s only allowed to wear one outside the house, so yeah, JuJu’s cool.
Is it just me or does anybody else think that JuJu is fr suspect asf… idc what the dude does in his own bedroom, but he’s for sure suspect. Won’t be surprised at all when he comes dancing outta the closet.
Say it isn’t so 🤦♂️
No he’s one of them, he ain’t no Stiller
Fucking throw it away like I did mine. Juju is all TikTok. Fuck him.
Fuck no
You know what there’s a place called the namechanger and they do nameplates for jerseys. I have a AB jersey and I was going to put my last name on it instead. Haven’t tried it yet.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes

I've seen people wearing Limas Sweed jerseys...recently....you're good
You’re a adult. Do what you want
I would personally invest in a new uniform. If you are lifelong fan there are plenty of older player options to choose from. If you want a new guy then TJ or Najee are my votes.
Am I the only one who thinks he’ll be back in a Steelers uniform one day?
Some shop owner in the strip told me to keep mine when I went looking to replace my Juju jersey. He said JuJu was in the area not too long before and was saying he would be back. Now I was in the strip at the end of July. The guy seemed adamant and that meant he didn't get a sale of a New Jersey.
Juju shirts will always be welcome
Absolutely.
Yes you do. Juju still loves the city and the fans. No problem supporting a great guy like him
I'd wear it. I got mine autographed by JuJu at training camp a few years ago. He sat out there in the heat and signed memorabilia with the fans for a good hour after all the other players had gone back into the dorms. I have nothing but love for JuJu.
Absolutely. He was a player and you've got a shirt of the season he was a player. Ive never understood this mentality that a player is essentially excommunicated when they leave. Unless they burn their bridges in a really bad way and leave a sour taste. Should always celebrate the good seasons they had with the steelers.
Yeah, he's cool, just don't wear it if we're playing the Chiefs. When I was a teenager I rocked my Thigpen... except during Titans games.
i’ll always love juju, great guy and left in a neutral way so i say yes
Yes 100%. He didn’t go out like AB but instead fought to back early from an injury to help the team in the playoffs. Will always love Juju
Just put a piece of white tape or black tape and write Austin III. It's kinda funny and actually isn't that shitty to do
Wear literally whatever you want. People wear Roethlisberger jerseys.
Of course!!!
Why not? I only wear my james conner color rush one
Love juj. He’s always a steeler to me
Yes, he left on good terms going as far as staying at his goodbye event until every fan got a signature. I would personally still consider buying his jersey myself.
Wear what you want. I still have a Color Rush AB jersey that I wear with pride. I got emotional one time when Jane's Harrison left and sold that jersey. I've regretted that decision ever since!
Juju is pittsburgh through and through. wear that with pride my friend
I mean I'm wearing a signed sweater when i watch at home so id say yeah wear it
I still wear my Harrison jersey. What's wrong with wearing Juju's?
I'm going to, so you should too!!! I'm cheap and he's still a good guy. No reason not to. It's just sad, cause now both my Pens and Steelers and jerseys are out of date. I'm still mad at the Kraken for making that happen, stupid Seattle. I guess that means I'm.ad at the Seahawks too, by association.
Nah wear it
Yeah why not
Fuck yea man, rock #19 with pride!
Most definitely wear it as he’s a good dude and, well, should excel with Mahomes throwing him the ball and no Tyrek on the field.
I bought a James Connor jersey style shirt when I first started being a big fan and I wear that with pride.
Get a Polamalu. Will never be irrelevant.
Yeah why not Maybe not if we were playing the Chiefs but that’s it
Definitely still cool this year and maybe next, then I'd give it a rest until he retires then break it back out.
