Will Jerry Jeudy play on ‘Thursday Night Football’ this week?
Denver Broncos coach Vic Fanigo said “there’s a possibility” that Jerry Jeudy (ankle) could play Thursday when he was asked about the wide receiver on Sunday, but he followed that up with “but I don’t know that it will happen.”
Fangio sounded less optimistic on Monday, suggesting the receiver had less than a 50-50 chance to play against the Cleveland Browns.
“When we do some of our walkthroughs, he’s going to stay out and do some stuff full speed, running routes and having a quarterback throw him the ball, etcetera,” Fangio said. “We’ll try and get a barometer on that and we’ll see. I think the chances of him playing are less than 50% right now.”
Jeudy ran full-speed routes on air with backup quarterback Drew Lock passing to him on Tuesday, according to The Gazette‘s George Stoia.
After the team had a light practice Tuesday, Fangio said there’s a “slight” chance that Jeudy might be able to play. Fangio indicated that a decision will be made Wednesday when the Broncos have to determine if Jeudy will be activated from injured reserve to the 53-man roster.
Denver will have another light practice on Wednesday before releasing a final injury report for Thursday’s game.
