Jerry Jeudy Tough To Trust With New QB Under Center
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has been a second-half MVP in fantasy leagues. He caught 11 passes for 108 yards in his most recent game, a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 15. Jeudy and the Browns now draw an excellent matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals on the road in Week 16. The Bengals have struggled against opposing passing attacks this season, allowing the 13th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers. That being said, the Browns benched Jameis Winston earlier this week and will turn to Dorian Thompson-Robinson at quarterback, a move that significantly downgrades the entire Cleveland passing attack. Jeudy is still playable in fantasy but he settles in as more of a flex option/WR3-type as opposed to the high-end WR2 that he had been in fantasy over the past month or so.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught 11 of his 14 targets for 108 yards in a 21-7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 15. Jeudy easily led all Cleveland pass-catchers in targets, receptions, and receiving yards in the blowout loss to the Chiefs while notching the third 100-yard receiving game in his past five contests. The only concern here for fantasy managers rostering Jeudy is that the Browns benched Jameis Winston late in the game after his third interception and turned to second-year QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson. Head coach Kevin Stefanski would not say who would be his starting quarterback in Week 16 against the Cincinnati Bengals but a switch to DTR would be a negative for the entire Cleveland passing game. Stay tuned.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (knee) has put together an impressive stretch of games since the beginning of November, posting 33 catches for 599 yards and three touchdowns over that span. He will look to stay hot in Week 15's home matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs have been dominant against the run this season, allowing the fewest fantasy points per game to running backs, but they are only average against the pass as they are giving up the 15th-most fantasy points per game to the receiver position. Jeudy is in line to keep his recent hot stretch going in a game where the Browns are likely to throw frequently against the Chiefs. A full participant in practice all week despite being listed with a knee injury, treat Jeudy as a mid-range WR2 in fantasy for Week 15.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught five of his six targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in a 27-14 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14. Jeudy got the Browns off to a fast start in the contest, hauling in a 35-yard touchdown to give Cleveland a 7-3 lead in the first quarter. Cleveland's leading receiving in Week 14, Jeudy has been on fire of late with three touchdown catches over his past four contests. The veteran receiver is shaping up as a must-start with the fantasy playoffs approaching next week. He will face off against the Kansas City Chiefs at home in Week 15.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (knee) turned in a career performance in a Week 13 loss to the Denver Broncos, catching nine passes for 235 yards and a touchdown. The veteran has been listed with a knee issue on the practice report for the past month or so but he practiced fully all week and does not have an injury designation heading into the weekend. He will look to stay hot in a road matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14. The Steelers have been tough on receivers this season, allowing the ninth-fewest fantasy points per game to the position thus far. That being said, the Jameis Winston-to-Jeudy connection has been fruitful for the Browns and fantasy gamers this season, even in difficult matchups. He can be treated as a low-end WR1 in fantasy heading into Week 14.
Jerry Jeudy Goes For Career-High 235 Yards In Monday Night Loss
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught nine of his 13 targets for 235 yards and a touchdown while adding a two-point conversion in a 41-32 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 13's Monday night game. Jeudy set a career-high in receiving yards while also setting an NFL record for the most receiving yards against a former team in the wild loss. The veteran wideout got things started early with a 44-yard reception on Cleveland's first drive. It could have been an even bigger game for Jeudy, who got wide-open in the second quarter and would have likely scored a touchdown if Jameis Winston hadn't badly overthrown him. Jeudy now ranks fifth in the NFL with 880 receiving yards after his huge performance on Monday night. Now an every-week must-start in fantasy, Jeudy will look to keep it rolling in Week 14 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Jeudy caught six passes for 85 yards back in Week 12 when these two teams met.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (knee) will take on his former team as he heads on the road to face the Denver Broncos in Week 13's Monday night game. Jeudy has been on fire of late as he has caught 24 passes for 379 yards and one touchdown over the past four games. He and Jameis Winston have shown nice chemistry together this season, although that will be tested in a matchup against a tough Denver secondary this week. The Broncos have clamped down on opposing receivers this season as they are allowing the third-fewest fantasy points per game to the position thus far. Jeudy has been too good of late to bench in fantasy but he should be treated as more of a WR3 this weekend thanks to the difficult matchup.
Jerry Jeudy Leads Browns In Receiving In Week 12 Win
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught all six of his targets for 85 yards in a 24-19 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. Jeudy led the Browns in all receiving categories on a cold, snowy evening in Cleveland where passing yards were hard to come by. The veteran receiver came up big in the close win, making several clutch catches to keep the chains moving including a big 15-yard catch on third-and-six in the fourth quarter that set up Nick Chubb for the game-winning touchdown run. Jeudy has been on fire of late, having caught at least five passes while reaching at least 73 receiving yards in five straight games. He will be a WR3 in fantasy in a tough matchup against the Denver Broncos in Week 13.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (knee) turned in his best game of the season last week, catching six passes for 142 yards and a touchdown in a loss to the New Orleans Saints. He will look to stay hot at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. The Steelers have been a difficult matchup for receivers this season as they allow the eighth-fewest fantasy points per game to the position. The veteran receiver is listed without an injury designation heading into Thursday despite being listed with a knee injury on the practice report earlier in the week. Jeudy's performance last week was certainly encouraging but the prohibitive matchup in Week 12 does not set up for a likely encore. That being said, Jeudy is still worth plugging into fantasy lineups as a WR3 this week.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (knee) was a full participant in practice on Tuesday. Jeudy has been listed on the injury report for two straight days but has been a full participant both times. Jeudy certainly did not appear to be limited by injury in Week 11. He caught six passes on 11 targets for 142 yards and a touchdown in a loss to the New Orleans Saints. The production was by far Jeudy's best of the season. With quarterback Jameis Winston slinging the rock, Jeudy has enjoyed solid success in recent weeks. He has reached at least 73 receiving yards in three straight games. Week 11 marked his second touchdown of the season. The Browns will meet the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday Night Football in Week 12. The Steelers pose a tough matchup for opposing offenses. However, Winston has been able to find success through pure volume and that does not project to dwindle in Week 12. With the way the Steelers' offense is playing, they should have no problem jumping out to a lead in this game. As such, the Browns should have to play catch up just as they have for most of the season. Jeudy has a chance to deliver high-end flex value or even WR2 numbers once again in Week 12.
