Jerry Jeudy makes first NFL catch, which goes for a first down
The Denver Broncos drafted Alabama WR Jerry Jeudy in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft and are counting on him to have a big rookie season.
Well, he’s off to a fast start in his first game as an NFL player. He recorded his first career catch late in the first quarter of Monday night’s game against the Tennessee Titans.
As you can see below, former Mizzou QB Drew Lock hit Jeudy on a curl route for a first down:
Here it is folks @jerryjeudy’s 1st catch in the #NFL #BroncosCountry

The Broncos went on to score a touchdown on the drive to take a 7-0 lead over the Titans.
With top Denver WR Courtland Sutton out on Monday night, Jeudy will have to make a few more plays to help the Broncos win. We’ll see what sort of chemistry he has with Lock moving forward.
Unfortunately he had 2 huge drops later on, and it cost the Broncos the game. Must be jitters, always had sure hands at bama.
Yeah the second one was a killer, it would have given the Bronco’s a 1st down and a chance to just milk the game away.
I would’ve drafted Sutton, Juedy,and Lock if available if I had found a ffb league. I think they will be solid fantasy players.
Jeudy’s route running is on another planet. With his separation, he’s going to be a feared receiver sooner than later.
Lots of wishes for a successful NFL career Jerry.
