Update, Sept. 6 — Jeudy practiced again on Thursday and apparently looked good, per Mike Klis. It’s still hard to tell if he’ll be able to return for this week, but he could be a game-time decision.

Fantasy football implications for Week 1
Jeudy has not officially been ruled inactive for Week 1, but he will likely either be out or limited a week from now as the Broncos take on the Raiders. His limitation would see Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims, and tight end Adam Trautman see an increase in targets and receptions from quarterback Russell Wilson. Second-string WR Brandon Johnson may also see an increase in snaps.
Jeudy led the Broncos in receiving yards in the 2022 season, amassing 972 yards and six touchdowns. The Broncos will be operating under a new system this season with head coach Sean Payton in his first year at the helm in Denver.
