Antonio Brown has his Rolls-Royce Phantoms. James Harrison has his firetruck. Now JuJu Smith-Schuster has his own notable wheels, too.
Well, notable because there are only two of them.
The Steelers receiver unveiled his new ride via Twitter on Tuesday, and it looks like ... a 10-speed?

“Whip,” for those unfamiliar with millennial slang, refers to a means of personal transpiration, usually a car. Smith-Schuster doesn’t have one of those yet as a 20-year-old rookie from Southern California who, as of the start of training camp, had yet to acquire even a learner’s permit to drive.
So in the meantime, it looks like he’ll be commuting to work using only the horsepower he can generate with his 6-feet-1, 215-pound frame.
Someone should tell him athletes get preferential treatment at the DMV.
