Jerry Jeudy Week 2 Outlook - Browns at Jaguars

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 12th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Jeudy opened the 2024 season with a WR33 finish, which was heavily influenced by him getting in the end zone. He did have solid market share metrics with a 17.8% target share, a 31.4% air-yard share, and a 20% first-read share, although all he did was post 0.58 YPRR. His per-route numbers, though, do portray a receiver that was held by bad quarterback play. In Week 1, among 78 qualifying receivers, Jeudy ranked 18th in separation and 21st in route win rate. If Cooper is cooked, Jeudy could be the receiver in this offense to emerge with a big game in Week 2, running about 65% of his routes against Ronald Darby (83.3% catch rate and 158.3 passer rating) and Montaric Brown (career: 69.2% catch rate and 123.2 passer rating).
