It’s time for the Denver Broncos to unleash Jerry Jeudy

You know what it’s time for?

It’s time for the 2021 Jerry Jeudy breakout game.

Jeudy has done his part helping the Broncos go 3-1 in this last stretch of games, coming back from an ugly injury in the season-opener against the Giants to have an obviously major role in the offense.

Unfortunately for the fans, that role has not always been in the form of catching passes.

Jeudy is doing a ton of work being a distraction for the defense on pre-snap motion, running across the formation and disguising the Broncos’ true intent on a lot of plays.

As much as he’s been in motion, Jeudy only has 18 catches in the four games he’s been back from injury. Against the aggressive defense of Steve Spagnuolo and the Kansas City Chiefs, the Broncos need Jeudy to feast on his one-on-one matchups in the slot and force the Chiefs onto their heels instead of pinning their ears back.

Jeudy has zero touchdowns so far this season, and with six games to play, that should change in a hurry. It’s time for no. 10 to get back in the end zone. It’s time for Jeudy to take over against a Kansas City secondary that ranks in the bottom 10 of yards allowed.

If Jerry Jeudy can have a big game against the Chiefs working out of the slot, the Broncos’ offense will be in good shape.
