Jerry Jeudy Looking For First Statement Game

Jerry Jeudy Looking For First Statement Game

one year ago

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy missed the season opener with a hamstring injury and has really flown under the radar in four games so far in 2023. He's done nothing to stand out, catching 17 of 24 targets for 208 yards (12.2 yards per catch) and no touchdowns. However, Jeudy did catch a season-high six passes on seven targets for 50 yards in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets. The former first-rounder will be looking to build on that this Thursday against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs in a game that figures to see the Broncos trailing, possibly big early on. The Chiefs defense has done a pretty solid job of limiting opposing wideouts through five weeks, but the good news is Jeudy has a pretty solid target floor as one of the top aerial weapons in Denver. He'll continue to be a WR4/flex with what is expected to be positive game script on Thursday night.
