Former Denver Broncos offensive lineman and NFL analyst Mark Schlereth is known for his candid opinions, and he didn’t hold back when reacting to the recent trade involving wide receiver Jerry Jeudy. In a video posted on social media, Schlereth expressed his unfiltered thoughts on Jeudy’s departure from the Denver Broncos.
Schlereth began by addressing his audience in his signature style, referring to himself as “your boy stink.” He wasted no time in getting to the point, stating that he had been vocal about his belief that Jeudy was a bust at the wide receiver position for the past two years.
The trade, which saw Jeudy being sent to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for a fifth- and sixth-round pick, prompted Schlereth to reiterate his stance on the player’s performance. He dismissed common arguments about Jeudy’s skills, such as his quickness in and out of breaks and his reputation as a great route runner.
According to Schlereth, Jeudy’s ability to get open only after the quarterback has gone through his progression is not enough to compensate for his shortcomings as a football player. He criticized Jeudy’s performance, citing issues such as his inability to run secondary routes effectively to attract coverage, frequent drops, and poor blocking.
Expressing his relief at Jeudy’s departure from the Broncos, Schlereth emphasized that the team does not need players of Jeudy’s caliber to rebuild. Despite bidding farewell to Jeudy, Schlereth humorously concluded his remarks by stating that he would never forget him, referring to him as “Jimmy Jeudy.”
