Jerry Jeudy entered the 2020 NFL Draft as the “most complete” wide receiver in the class.

He amazed Alabama fans for three years and won a Southeastern Conference title, national championship, Fred Biletnikoff Award, Consensus All-American, and first-team All-SEC.

The South Florida native was selected at No. 15 overall by the Denver Broncos and had a good rookie season. He suffered some dropped passes; however, Jeudy did record two 100-yard games.

He finished seventh among receivers with 16.5 yards per catch. Jeudy totaled 52 receptions for 856 yards and three touchdowns, but he is training to have a better sophomore campaign.

The 6-foot-1, 193-pounder has been working with Steph Brown, a wide receiver specialist from Western Kentucky University, on crafting his routes and having consistency with his hands.

According to a video from Brown, Jeudy is putting moves on defenders and looks ready for the fall.

He posted a 1,000-yard season twice at Alabama in 2018 and 2019. Jeudy has the capability to be an explosive target in the Broncos’ offense.

The former five-star strives for perfection, and he expects to crack the century mark this season in yards.
