Former All-Pro wide receiver Steve Smith has been notoriously critical of Cleveland Browns wideout Jerry Jeudy, but he is changing his tune after Monday night.
Jeudy, who is now tied for fifth in receiving yards in the NFL with 880 yards, racked up 235 yards and a touchdown on his former team on Monday Night Football. Smith noticed and gave Jeudy the credit that he deserved. Here is what Smith had to say on Jeudy’s big night:
“King Jerry Jeudy has arrived. Nine catches, 235 yards, and a whole lot of humble pie for guys like Agent 89, Steve Smith. And listening to all of the boos out in Denver, how dare you stone you fans for talking bad about him. He was balling. He lived up to everything you expected him to do. This wasn’t a revenge game, this was a ‘look at me’ game… fantastic job bro.”

The Browns dropped to 3-9 on the season, but it is becoming apparent that they have a future key piece after giving up just a fifth and a sixth round pick to get the young star in the making. At just 25 years old as well, the best football is still ahead of Jeudy.
