LeBron James jokingly attributes his clothing as the reason he could never play for the Steelers

LeBron James is easily one of the most athletic humans on earth. His huge stature and other-worldly physique and work ethic all combined to make up a super-athlete. While basketball is the sport he has chosen to dominate, it isn't hard to imagine that he may have been successful in other sports had he decided to go down a different path. 

The sport most closely associated with LeBron as a dual-sport athlete is definitely football. James played football in high school, and apparently was pretty good at it too, before deciding to pursue basketball as a career. 

If it were up to JuJu Smith-Schuster, however, LeBron's career wouldn't end on the hardwood. The Steelers' wide receiver sensation is coming off an impressive rookie campaign where he established himself as a legitimate deep threat, but he also established himself as a huge social media presence. Given that, it's not surprising that he would be the one taking the first step in LeBron-recruitment. 

Of course it would be insanely surprising if LeBron decided to leave his status as best-player-in-the-game-and-possibly-even-ever in basketball to pursue a career in a different sport (although, it would definitely add to his legacy), and on Wednesday he responded to the topic jokingly blaming his clothing for the reason it wouldn't work on the gridiron. 

Well, Steelers fans can still be excited about JuJu. But when it comes to LeBron, they're probably more likely to end up facing him as a Philadelphia representative than anything.
