The Denver Broncos surprisingly put up a solid fight against the Kansas City Chiefs. Most of the thanks can go to Jerry Jeudy’s monster day.
Although he recorded three touchdowns, many are upset with the Broncos wide receiver. Mainly because he may have gotten away with a big foul and could still receive a fine for it from the NFL.
Dov Kleiman shares a clip of Jerry Jeudy losing his mind in the middle of the game. To be fair, the referees didn’t throw a flag on a pass interference that should have been called. Even so, the Broncos wide receiver essentially throws a tantrum, takes his helmet off, and proceeds to body-check the referee. And surprisingly nobody threw a flag on him for it.
Wow, Jerry Jeudypic.twitter.com/Gs8xQF73Va

First of all, the NFL has no idea when it’s time to throw the flag on a player for taking their helmet off on the field. We’ve seen guys like DJ Moore get penalized for it while many other scenarios get ignored. Not only that, but Jerry Jeudy straight-up body-checked that dude. Sure, it wasn’t a hard shove, but touching the referee is never allowed in any sport.
So, it appears the Broncos receiver got away within in the middle of the game. On top of that, the Chiefs got the win, so they get the last laugh anyway.
The league has yet to acknowledge this incident. However, we wouldn’t be shocked if they opt to fine Jerry Jeudy for this incident.
