If Jerry Jeudy does wind up coming to the Carolina Panthers, it won’t be by a recommendation from Steve Smith Sr.
The franchise’s all-time leading receiver and current NFL Network analyst broke out the patented mouthpiece on Thursday night, just ahead of the Week 6 matchup between the Denver Broncos and the Kansas City Chiefs. Smith Sr., while reporting from the set of NFL GameDay, said he attempted to make nice with Jeudy—but got a response he probably wasn’t expecting.
So, he responded right back . . .

Jeudy, who may be wearing out his welcome in the Mile High City, has recently been linked to the receiver-needy Panthers. KOA Colorado’s Benjamin Allbright stated last Thursday that Carolina had been “sniffing around” on the former first-round pick.
Now in his fourth pro campaign, Jeudy has failed to live up to the billing he came out of Alabama with. Going into tonight’s contest, 2020’s 15th overall selection has recorded just 174 receptions for 2,503 yards and nine touchdowns over 45 career games.
And, hey, if he’s ultimately not a Panther, he can always be a JAG.
