This isn't the first time JuJu Smith-Schuster has arrived at a game wearing the all-white outfit. Back in 2019, the wide receiver revealed he came from a Samoan family and wanted to celebrate it ahead of a 24-17 win over the LA Chargers six years ago.

"I grew up in a big Samoan family, and this culture is a huge part of my life. Coming back to LA, it was special for me to represent my heritage in the city I grew up in with hundreds of my family and friends in the stands. Last Sunday was White Sunday, a day in Samoa to celebrate childhood and the children in the community. I wore all white to celebrate the holiday. Proud to have Samoan blood and represent the culture," he wrote on Instagram.
