Jerry Jeudy will be available for the Broncos in Week 2 since he is not listed on Denver’s final injury report for the week and is anticipated to play against Washington.
Jeudy’s hamstring issue prevented him from playing last week. Wednesday’s practice was still limited for him, but Thursday and Friday he participated fully.
Sean Payton backs Jerry Jeudy to come good
Sean Payton, the team’s head coach, stated in his Friday press conference that Jeudy won’t have any restrictions on his snaps during the game, according to Aric DiLalla of the team’s website.
He is in good health, Payton added. “He’s fine,”
After participating fully on Thursday and Friday, defensive tackle D.T. Jones (knee) and cornerback Riley Moss (abdomen) are also anticipated to participate. However, both edge rusher Frank Clark (hip) and tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring) have been ruled out. Both Dulcich and Clark are anticipated to miss many weeks due to their injuries.
Jeudy’s contributions would be greatly appreciated by quarterback Russell Wilson and the offence, as their WR ranks have been weak this offseason due to the losses of Tim Patrick and KJ Hamler. Javonte Williams, a running back, emerged as his top target in Week 1 (six targets, four receptions for 5 yards), and Samaje Perine, another running back, contributed a team-high 37 receiving yards. Sean said this about Jeudy a few months ago,
Wilson’s preferred target in 2022 was Jeudy, who recorded team-highs of 67 receptions, 972 yards, and six touchdowns. Without a doubt, Jeudy’s return will be warmly received by both teammates and Broncos supporters.
