Eager to give Broncos fans something to cheer about, Russell Wilson and Jerry Jeudy got together on March 28th to get some work in. However, in the attached clip, Wilson and Jeudy practiced in the dark. The post received a mix of reactions. Some were not impressed by his posting about working, but others were thrilled to be seeing it. Here's the original post:

This fan decided to write a poem to express his thoughts.

Alternative Facts is either a Chiefs fan or a depressed Broncos fan in denial that his team will ever be good again.

Jace Sully says that part of the reason Wilson escaped the NFC West was due to Aaron Donald. However, he has jumped from the frying pan into the fire as he now has a new slew of pass rushers to deal with.

Nick is thrilled to be a Broncos fan right now.

Jack Cavanagh is flexing his team's offense, essentially saying it is loaded from top to bottom.

Carlos Aguayo knows the pain of watching Jerry Jeudy and Courtland Sutton run wide open, only for the quarterback to miss the throw.

Mike Honcho is immensely relieved at the thought of getting off the quarterback carousel.

Fery Bogard, a Seahawks fan, is still keeping up with his former quarterback. However, Bogard is learning that doing so is like following an ex on social media. Put simply, they are not excited about 2022 right now.

Broncos fan Robbie has set clear expectations as high in the atmosphere as possible.

Zuko Samba has bought into Wilson's new catch-phrase, and they're ready to rock.

In his brief career, wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has been a red flag on the stat sheet but a green flag on the field. In other words, his stats are not representative of the entire picture. Here's a look at how he's done so far.

The first-round pick was drafted in 2020 to be similar to Tyreek Hill's speed. As such, his purpose was to take the top off the defense. He may not get as many catches, but most of them were expected to be profound, creating high yardage. In 2020, with gunslinger Drew Lock under center, he earned 52 catches for 856 yards and three touchdowns.

However, when Teddy Bridgewater started in 2021, his deep balls were relatively rare compared to Lock. Jeudy's stats took a nosedive as a result. He caught 38 passes for 467 yards and no touchdowns. However, the wide receiver also developed an issue with dropping the ball. Now with a gunslinger back in the offense with Wilson, 2022 could be defining for Jeudy.
