A few years ago, the Denver Broncos took a chance on what they thought was the best wide receiver in the draft. Obviously, it didn’t turn out too great for them, but they are on a streak of bad things happening to them, so that really isn’t surprising. One of the things that didn’t land was drafting wide receiver Jerry Jeudy.
Now, a bunch of other things have happened that have also contributed to him not living up to the round one; pick 15 hopes everyone had for him and the Broncos’ offense. With the apparent rebuild and moves the Broncos are making, it was clear they would try and trade Jeudy, especially with the rumors that they would last offseason.
So, they did, and they traded him to the Cleveland Browns. Once he was traded to the Browns, Cleveland signed him to a three-year extension worth up to $58 million. It’s safe to say, though, that Jeudyt has had some big critics since he’s been in the league, and rightfully so, as the production has not matched the talent we know he has.
So, one former NFL player who is now a local Denver radio host called him out, as he does with all Broncos players in the weirdest ways possible. And, let’s just say Jeudy had enough.
Former lineman Mark Schlereth hosts a radio show and took time out of his day to record a video on how he feels about Jeudy after the trade, and Jeudy finally had enough.

Schlereth ended up arguing with fans, including tweeting several different tweets about Jeudy. We are looking at a case of a 60-year-old man arguing with a 24-year-old on social media about nothing, really.
Congrats on getting paid, but I believe you spelt that wrong. I think it's #Bustseason https://t.co/aQoQewaI8T

Jeudy got his money, and while he didn’t do enough in Denver, maybe Cleveland is a better fit for him.
