1. Denver Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy has his breakout season

Alongside a great group of wide receivers, I think Jerry Jeudy finally hits stride with Denver’s new sweetheart, Russell Wilson.

While many of us were hoping this to be the case last season, I think the type of pass that Wilson throws will bode well for Jerry Jeudy. With his soft touch and timing, Jeudy may find himself catching more passes downfield with touch than slants that are bulleted inside his chest.

That type of attention never really paired well with what Jeudy can do.

Here is how it is going to go down, Jeudy will continue to shake himself free down the deep middle of the field and a softly laid-out pass will drop right into Jeudy’s breadbasket. Having a guy like Jerry Jeudy, whose best attribute is getting open, will really help this Denver Broncos’ offense explode in 2022.

My expectations are for Jeudy to explode this year and get his first taste of success in the NFL, ultimately landing him a spot in the Pro Bowl. Courtland Sutton, Tim Patrick, and the rest of the crew will all perform well in 2022, but I think this Wilson to Jeudy connection will be rolling by mid-season.

Russell Wilson has clamored about all of his teammates since being traded to Denver, but it seems he has become admired by Jeudy’s skillset and raves about him every chance he gets. Wilson went as far as to say “He’s a star” in reference to the third-year pro from the prestigious University of Alabama.
