PITTSBURGH -- JuJu Smith-Schuster's ten dollars of Mega Millions winnings are going to Wednesday's powerball.

At that point, the Steelers wide receiver said, he's done playing the lottery.

"Then that's it, that's quits," Smith-Schuster said. "I'm done."

Smith-Schuster, 21, said he spent a total of two-hundred twenty dollars playing the Mega Millions jackpot that was at $1.6 billion before the winning ticket was sold in South Carolina. He bought 120 tickets Tuesday in addition to the 100 he already purchased.

Had Smith-Schuster won the jackpot, however, he would've stayed in the NFL. He'd have told his mom first, he said, then joked about taking care of his teammates.

"I'm not trying to put myself out there. I'd still play ball, though, you know what I mean?" Smith-Schuster said. "But have better cars, better house, have that lifestyle."

As the group of reporters around Smith-Schuster dispersed on Wednesday afternoon, he also joked that any members of the media who win the lottery should let him know and that he was trying to win to get Le'Veon Bell back to the team.

But, he said, it didn't work.

Smith-Schuster's one-off method is to pick random numbers -- "there's a lot of numbers," he said.

But what he said was his last time playing the lottery was also his first and an experience he wanted to have.

Smith-Schuster said: "I mean, honestly I've never played it before. Why not?"
