JuJu Smith-Schuster Joins Gaming Company

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver and USC alum, JuJu Smith-Schuster, has recently signed a six figure endorsement deal with Hyper X.  Smith-Schuster is the first NFL player to be signed by the company, which already has several pro gamers and teams signed to endorsement deals for exclusive use of Hyper X high performance computer products from headsets to keyboards to memory modules.  The company is also one of the main sponsors for eSports' festivals Intel Extreme Masters and Dreamhack.

The explosive wide receiver is no stranger to the eSports scene, so the partnership makes sense.  During his amazing rookie season last year, he was able to find the time to play 'Call of Duty' (COD) and keep up with the 'COD' competitive scene.  

Smith-Schuster has been gaining a lot of respect from the gaming community with his recent livestreams of him playing the phenom that is 'Fornite,' as well as an episode of his JuJu TV webseries where he receives a firsthand tour of the eSports and YouTube content creators' FaZe Clan house in Hollywood, CA.  In collaboration with the FaZe Clan franchise he has a team hoodie and T-shirt that has since sold out on the team's website.
