7 breakout candidates for the Denver Broncos during 2021 season

3. Jerry Jeudy, wide receiver

If you want to talk about low-hanging fruit when it comes to the Denver Broncos’ possible breakout players in 2021, it’s Jerry Jeudy.

The second-year wide receiver was understandably scrutinized for his dropped passes in 2020 as a rookie, but that is not an uncommon issue with young receivers.

He’s been the hottest player for the Denver Broncos throughout the entire 2021 offseason, and the talk out of Denver Broncos camp was that he and Teddy Bridgewater had built up some impressive chemistry together.

Jeudy, despite issues with drops last season, still managed to catch 52 passes for 856 yards and three touchdowns.

There were no shortage of highlight-reel plays in Jeudy’s rookie season, and with stronger hands in year two, there’s no doubt that he is the top breakout candidate on the Denver Broncos.

Even with the return of Courtland Sutton, it’s possible that Jeudy could lead the team in most if not all receiving categories.

He’s a superstar in the making, Broncos Country.
