Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy will miss four to six weeks due to a high ankle sprain, head coach Vic Fangio said Monday, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The second-year receiver seemed primed for a breakout before suffering the injury in Week 1's win over the New York Giants. He had six receptions for 72 yards early in the third quarter before awkwardly turning his ankle and being carted off the field.
Jeudy had showcased plenty of upside during his first season despite inconsistent quarterback play from Drew Lock, Jeff Driskel and Brett Rypien.
