Explosive performance in finale

Jeudy secured five of six targets for 154 yards in the Broncos' 31-28 win over the Chargers on Sunday. He also rushed three times for 39 yards and recovered a fumble.

Analysis: Jeudy led the Broncos in receptions and receiving yards while checking in second to Courtland Sutton in targets. While the third-year speedster wasn't on the receiving end of any of Russell Wilson's three touchdown tosses, Jeudy recorded a game-long 57-yard reception that put Denver in business at the Chargers' three-yard line late in the second quarter, leading to an Eric Tomlinson three-yard scoring grab. Jeudy fell just 28 short of his first 1,000-yard season, but both his 67 receptions, 972 receiving yards and six touchdowns across 15 games were all career highs. The 2020 first-round pick enters the final year of his rookie contract in 2023, but given his strong body of work in his first season with Russell Wilson, it's likely the Broncos pick up Jeudy's fifth-year option this offseason.

Cleared for Week 18 action

Jeudy (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Analysis: Jeudy gained clearance for the season finale after he put in a full practice Friday following limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday. Though the Denver passing offense has mostly been an unproductive one in 2022, Jeudy has posted his best numbers in the season's final stanza. Over his last four appearances, Jeudy has been targeted no fewer than eight times on any occasion while stringing together a 28-304-3 receiving line.

Reps capped in practice again

Jeudy (ankle) will be a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Analysis: Jeudy's reps are being capped for the second straight day, but the Broncos haven't yet suggested that the third-year wideout is dealing with any sort of setback with the ankle issue that resulted in him being listed questionable ahead of last week's game against the Chiefs. He was ultimately cleared to play in the Broncos' eventual 27-24 loss, playing 89 percent of the offensive snaps en route to recording seven catches for 38 yards on eight targets. Assuming he gets the green light for Sunday's season finale against the Chargers, Jeudy should once again fill a high-volume role in the Denver passing attack.

Logs limited practice

Jeudy (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday.

Analysis: Jeudy was limited at practice last week and deemed questionable for the Broncos' Week 17 contest against the Chiefs, but he ended up suiting up and recording an 89 percent snap share, while catching seven of his eight targets for 38 yards. With no reported setbacks, we suspect that the wideout's listed limitations Wednesday could well be precautionary versus indicative of any setbacks with his ankle.

Jan 4, 2023 2:21 PM EST


Quiet in loss

Jeudy caught seven of eight targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Chiefs.

Analysis: Jeudy's underwhelming performance came on a day when he led the team in targets while the Broncos traded blows with the Chiefs. The veteran's 38 yards were his lowest in his past five games, as he has been one of the lone bright spots for Denver's offense in recent weeks. The growing chemistry between Jeudy and Russell Wilson may not have rendered much in the way of fantasy production Sunday, but the 23-year-old wideout will look to finish the year on a strong note when the Broncos host the Chargers in Week 18.

Jan 1, 2023 2:58 PM EST



Active against Chiefs

Jeudy (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Analysis: Jeudy will play through the ankle injury again, facing a Chiefs defense he scored three touchdowns against three weeks ago. He's caught 13 passes for 193 yards in two games since, emerging as one of the few bright spots for Denver in the second half of the season.

Jan 1, 2023 8:34 AM EST


Questionable for Week 17

Jeudy (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs after logging limited practices this week.

Analysis: Jeudy's status is thus worth confirming, but fortunately for those inclined to use him in Week 17 fantasy lineups, the Broncos kick off at 1:00 ET on Sunday. For his part, interim head coach Jerry Rosburg noted Friday that he fully expects Jeudy to play. If so, the 2020 first-rounder would be in line to continue to be a key passing target for QB Russell Wilson versus Kansas City alongside fellow wideout Courtland Sutton.

Dec 30, 2022 2:19 PM EST


Still limited in practice

Jeudy (ankle) will remain a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Each of Denver's top three receivers will have their reps capped for the second day in a row, with Courtland Sutton (hamstring) and Kendall Hinton (hamstring) joining Jeudy as limited participants. Considering both Jeudy and Sutton played north of 75 percent of the snaps on offense in Sunday's 51-14 loss to the Rams and neither is believed to be dealing with any reported setbacks with their respective injuries, the two are likely having their practice participation managed for maintenance-related reasons. Hinton, meanwhile, has sat out Denver's last two games and may need to advance to full participation to get cleared for Sunday's game in Kansas City.

Limited by ankle issue

Jeudy (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday, Ellie Kinney of the Broncos' official site reports.

Analysis: As were fellow wideouts Courtland Sutton (hamstring) and Kendall Hinton (hamstring), which makes the trio's status worth monitoring as Sunday's game against the Chiefs approaches. Per Mike Klis of 9News Denver,Jeudy headed to the locker room with a trainer during Wednesday's practice, but was subsequently able to finish the session.

Dec 28, 2022 3:00 PM EST


New season high in receiving yards

Jeudy had six receptions (10 targets) for 117 yards in Sunday's 51-14 loss to the Rams.

Analysis: Jeudy was the lone bright spot in yet another forgettable performance from the Broncos offense. The 23-year-old put his route-running skills on full display when he ran a crisp sluggo that beat two Los Angeles defenders for a 36-yard gain. Jeudy set a new high-water mark in receiving yards with this standout effort, bringing his season total up to 780 yards through 13 starts. The Broncos will face the Chiefs on Jan. 1, and Jeudy will match up with a defense that he torched for three touchdowns when they met in Week 14.

Dec 25, 2022 5:27 PM EST


Records seven receptions

Jeudy recorded seven receptions on eight targets for 76 yards in Sunday's 24-15 win over Arizona.

Analysis: As expected, Jeudy led Denver's receiving corps in targets, receptions and yards with Courtland Sutton (hamstring) still sidelined. Jeudy's performance was highlighted by gains of 19 and 14 yards, though he otherwise worked primarily in the short areas of the field. While he wasn't able to repeat his three-touchdown performance from Week 14, Jeudy has 17 targets and 149 yards combined across his last two games.

Dec 18, 2022 5:50 PM EST


Poised to be No. 1 WR on Sunday

Jeudy is set to be the Broncos' featured wide receiver Sunday against the Cardinals with both Courtland Sutton (hamstring) and Kendall Hinton (hamstring) ruled out for the contest, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

Analysis: While Jeudy should have his fill of targets, they won't be coming from Russell Wilson, as the quarterback remains in the concussion protocol and has been ruled out for Week 15 action. Instead, Jeudy will be operating with Brett Rypien, who has managed just 5.6 yards per attempt on 96 passes across six career appearances. Still, Jeudy currently is on a nice two-game run, which has amounted to 12 catches (on 13 targets) for 138 yards and three touchdowns, with all three scores coming last Sunday versus the Chiefs.

Dec 16, 2022 1:46 PM EST


Three TDs in losing effort

Jeudy caught eight of nine targets for 73 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 34-28 loss to Kansas City.

Analysis: With Courtland Sutton (hamstring) sidelined, Jeudy was the top option in the Denver passing game and proved to be more than up to the challenge, hauling in two TD tosses from Russell Wilson (concussion) late in the second quarter as the Broncos began an ultimately futile attempt to come back from a 27-0 deficit. Jeudy then caught his team's final score of the day on a seven-yard pass from Brett Rypien after Wilson was forced out of the game. The huge performance doubled Jeudy's touchdown total on the season, but his fantasy outlook would still be a little dimmer in Week 15 against the Cardinals if Rypien is back under center instead of Wilson.

Dec 11, 2022 6:38 PM EST


Cleared to play while Sutton sits

Jeudy (ankle) practiced fully Friday and has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Analysis: Jeudy has healed up just in time to take on the leading role in a Broncos receiving corps that will be without Courtland Sutton (hamstring). Kendall Hinton will likely work as a distant second on the wide receiver depth chart in a game that could feature a pass-heavy game script for the underdog Broncos.

Dec 9, 2022 1:08 PM EST


Another limited practice

Jeudy (ankle) remained limited at practice Thursday, Ellie Kinney of the Broncos' official site reports.

Analysis: Jeudy returned from a two-game absence in this past Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Ravens en route to catching all four of his targets for 65 yards. Since then he's logged back-to-back limited practices, but unless Jeudy works fully Friday, he figures to head into this weekend's game against Kansas City with a Week 14 injury designation.

Dec 8, 2022 2:33 PM EST


Limited in practice

Jeudy (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Analysis: Jeudy came back from a two-game absence to catch each of his four targets for 65 yards in Sunday's 10-9 loss at Baltimore; his third best yardage total of the season despite playing only 20 snaps (38 percent). He should play a lot more this week against the Chiefs, assuming no setbacks with the ankle, and Jeudy is the clear No. 1 receiver with Courtland Sutton (hamstring) now expected to miss at least one game.

Dec 7, 2022 2:18 PM EST


Four grabs in return

Jeudy secured all four targets for 65 yards in the Broncos' 10-9 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

Analysis: Jeudy put in a solid effort in his return from a two-game absence, checking in second in receptions and receiving yards to tight end Greg Dulcich. Courtland Sutton's early exit due to a hamstring injury didn't hurt Jeudy's chances of drawing some of Russell Wilson's attention, but the entire Broncos offense continues to be stuck in neutral for the most part. Jeudy could be due for an elevated role in Week 14 if Sutton is unable to suit up for the home showdown against the Chiefs.

Dec 4, 2022 3:17 PM EST


Making return from two-game absence

Jeudy (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Analysis: Jeudy will return to action after missing the Broncos' last two contests due to an ankle injury. He was listed as a non-participant in practices Wednesday and Thursday before returning to the field Friday in a limited fashion, so there's some reason to suspect that he could be more limited than usual as he rejoins the lineup. In any case, Jeudy is expected to start out wide opposite Courtland Sutton, while Kendall Hinton likely steps in as the Broncos' primary slot man with KJ Hamler (hamstring) on injured reserve.

Dec 4, 2022 8:35 AM EST


Poised for return

Jeudy (ankle) officially listed as questionable, is expected to play Sunday against the Ravens barring a setback, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Jeudy has missed each of Denver's last two games with the injury, but he returned to practice in limited fashion Friday. He was previously reported to be a game-time decision, and his status will not become official until shortly before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Even if he is active, Jeudy could face a snap count.

Dec 3, 2022 9:29 PM EST


To be 'game-time decision' Sunday

Coach Nathaniel Hackett said Friday that Jeudy (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's contest at Baltimore, George Stoia III of The Denver Gazette reports.

Analysis: As of Thursday, Jeudy had yet to practice since hurting his left ankle back in Week 10, which has sidelined him the past two weeks. Still, the Broncos are listing the third-year pro as questionable to play Week 13, per Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com. The top of Denver's receiving corps is influx at the moment, with Courtland Sutton dealing with a stomach bug and KJ Hamler suffering a setback with his hamstring issue this week. The release of the team's inactives about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff will clarify who among Sutton and Jeudy is available to the offense, but Kendall Hinton, Montrell Washington and Jalen Virgil are the current healthy options on the active roster.
