The Denver Broncos are holding their breath, as one of their most important offensive players was injured Thursday during joint practices with the Los Angeles Rams. According to multiple reports, wide receiver Jerry Jeudy was carted off the field with a hamstring injury.
Per NFL Media, Jeudy took an end-around and then grabbed his right upper leg. He had trouble getting on the cart, and was visibly upset. His teammates came over to wish him well before being taken inside.
Jeudy is coming off of a career year in which he caught 67 passes for 972 yards and six touchdowns in 15 games played. He suffered an ankle injury in Week 10 that caused him to miss the better part of three games.
The Broncos have unfortunately suffered multiple injuries at the wide receiver position this preseason. Tim Patrick tore his Achilles, K.J. Hamler was waived after being diagnosed with pericarditis and Jalen Virgil has been placed on season-ending injured reserve as well. Jeudy was selected with the No. 15 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft out of Alabama. In 41 career games, he has caught 157 passes for 2,295 yards and nine touchdowns.
