Reporter Jason La Canfora detailed that Jeudy “writhed in pain” and had his head in his hands while being carted off the field.
Jerry Jeudy suffers what appeara to be an ankle injury after making a catch. Ankle rolled very awkwardly as he writhed in pain. Cannot put weight on it and now being carted off with his head in his hands.

Jeudy is in his second season with Denver. The No. 15 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, Jeudy had 52 catches for 856 yards and 3 touchdowns as a rookie. His 2021 season was off to a strong start. Against the Giants, he had recorded 6 receptions for 72 yards.
We hope to hear a positive update on Jeudy, but it doesn’t look good right now.
