Frustrations boiled over for Denver Broncos first-round wide receiver Jerry Jeudy in the wake of Sunday’s loss to Kansas City, a game in which he wasn’t targeted as much as he would’ve liked.
Jeudy posted that “at least I got my conditioning in,” a potential shot at quarterback Drew Lock, and “it all makes sense now lol,” in response to a recent Odell Beckham Jr. quote harshly criticizing former Giants head coach and current Broncos offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur.
He finished the 22-16 defeat at Kansas City with one catch for five yards. He’s seen five targets over the past two games.
Speaking to the media no Wednesday, Fangio addressed Jeudy’s frustrations.
“I don’t think he’s frustrated, I mean, I don’t think he’s hit the wall at all,” Fangio said. “I think he’d just like to have more catches and I don’t know any receiver who doesn’t feel that way. You know I’m glad he’s frustrated that he’s not getting more production. We want our guys to feel that way… I’m okay with Jerry. Jerry’s in a good spot.”
Jerry Jeudy had 37 receptions for 589 yards and two touchdowns.
