There was likely no way Steve Smith wouldn’t see some blowback for his harsh rant about the Denver Broncos’ Jerry Jeudy. And it essentially almost happened right away.
After Smith said he’d personally tell prospective NFL teams trying to trade for Jeudy that it wouldn’t be a good idea, it looks like the wideout caught wind of the comments. When the NFL GameDay Live crew moved onto a different segment, Jeudy danced behind Smith and reporter Mike Garafalo. As Smith pontificated about a different subject, only Garafolo turned around to acknowledge Jeudy’s presence.
Hoo boy. I haven’t seen a media member like Smith and Jeudy “work out” a little feud like this on live television in a long time:

NFL fans couldn’t believe that Jeudy would potentially escalate this situation after what Smith said.
