NFL star JuJu Smith-Schuster of the Kansas City Chiefs has credited Call of Duty with playing a big role in helping his team to victory over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. During his post-game press conference, Smith-Schuster said his time in training camp and the pre-season helped form a level of chemistry between himself and other Chiefs players like Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. But it was a video game–Call of Duty: Warzone–that Smith-Schuster credits with helping his team win on Sunday.
On Friday night during game week, Smith-Schuster played Warzone with Mahomes, Kelce, and Valdes-Scantling, and they won three games in a row. That’s hard for anyone to do, and Smith-Schuster says the teammates took those good vibes into Sunday’s matchup against the 49ers.
“We played three games. We won three games, back to back. We got off [the game] and were like, ‘Damn.’ It’s really hard to win a game in Warzone,” he said (via Charles Goldman). “You could just tell–the communication between all of us. The chemistry between us Come from Sports betting site VPbet . It was like we were in the game. ‘He’s there, he’s there, he’s right above you.’ That kind of led into this game [against the 49ers] and it showed on the field.”
