Denver Broncos: Who gets more targets with Courtland Sutton out?

1. Jerry Jeudy

Jerry Jeudy came into the NFL with WR1 skills, and he’s now going to have to take on a WR1 target share.

There has been some debate among Broncos Country over the first couple weeks of his NFL career as to whether or not Jeudy was or is ready to be a WR1, and I want to look at the reasons he is ready for that type of expanded role.

First and foremost, Jeudy is pretty much always open. If you’ve been watching the All-22 coaches tape from the first two Broncos games, you can see clearly that Jeudy has no problem getting open regardless of his alignment.

He’s capable of doing this to all three levels of the field.

With the Broncos likely moving to a more quick-striking pass attack, Jeudy should continue to be the most targeted receiver on the team.

Through two games, he already leads the team with 15 targets. Expect his looks to go from 7-8 per game to 8-12.
