Jerry Jeudy Fantasy Overview

2025 Role & Results

Production & Fantasy Finishes

Jeudy caught 50 balls for 602 yards and 2 TDs across 17 games last year, finishing 69th among WRs in PPR points per game.

Jeudy scored as a top-12 PPR receiver just once, cracked the top 24 only twice, and ranked outside the top 36 WRs in 12 of 17 games.

Usage & Role

Jeudy led the Browns in routes (86.4%) and ranked second on the team behind TE Harold Fannin Jr. in targets (106).

Those 106 targets tied for 23rd among all WRs. Jeudy’s 18.6% target share ranked 36th.

He finished 40th among WRs in expected PPR points per game.

Efficiency & Regression

Jeudy was the biggest underachiever at WR in the NFL, scoring 3.6 fewer PPR points than expected.

Among 76 WRs with 50+ targets last year, Jeudy ranked:

• 75th in catch rate
• 47th in yards per catch
• 73rd in yards per target
• 66th in yards per route

Jeudy didn’t get much help from his QBs. Just 64.4% of his targets were deemed catchable, fifth-lowest among those 76 WRs.

But Jeudy didn’t fare well in film-based metrics. Among those 76 WRs, he ranked:

• 69th in Pro Football Focus receiving grade
• 74th in ESPN receiver score
• 39th in Fantasy Points separation score

Offensive Context

The 2025 Browns ranked:

• 19th in plays
• 30th in total yards
• 32nd in yards per play
• 31st in points

The passing game was one of the worst in the league, finishing:

• 32nd in completion rate
• 31st in yards
• 31st in yards per attempt
• 30th in TDs

Jeudy and Fannin were the only Browns to reach 600 receiving yards last year. WR Isaiah Bond finished third on the team with 338 yards.

Historical Production & Trends

Jeudy’s ugly 2025 followed a career-best 2024 in his first season with the Browns. He racked up 90 catches for 1,229 yards and 4 TDs, finishing 28th among WRs in PPR points per game.

That came on a Browns team that led the league in pass attempts, although it ranked just 22nd in passing yards and 28th in TDs.

Jeudy posted middling efficiency marks in 2024. Among 84 WRs with 50+ targets, he finished:

• 34th in yards per target
• 41st in yards per route

Jeudy was generally underwhelming across four seasons in Denver to open his career. His finishes among WRs in PPR points per game:

• 2020: 64th
• 2021: 76th
• 2022: 22nd
• 2023: 59th

Injury History & Durability

Jeudy has missed nine games with injury across his six seasons:

• six with a high-ankle sprain in 2021
• two with a strained muscle behind his left ankle in 2022
• one with a hamstring injury in 2023

2026 Opportunity & Projection

Projected Role & Competition

The Browns spent top-40 picks on WRs KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston this spring.

Concepcion (24th overall) broke out as a freshman at North Carolina State in 2023 and led Texas A&M with 61 catches, 919 yards, and 9 TDs last year. He’s position-versatile and especially dangerous after the catch.

Boston (39th overall) is your classic big-bodied outside receiver. The 6’4, 212-pounder averaged 13.7 yards per catch with 20 total TDs over his final two seasons at Washington.

Cleveland also returns TE Harold Fannin Jr., who’s coming off a 107-target, 72-catch rookie season.

TE David Njoku was the only significant departure from last year’s pass-catching corps. He averaged 4.0 targets across his 12 games last season.

Jeudy should remain a top-3 WR on this team and could even still lead the WRs in targets. But he’s undoubtedly facing tougher competition than last season.

Supporting Cast

QB play remains a big concern.

Deshaun Watson is the early favorite to start, but he’s working back from a twice-torn Achilles. And he wasn’t good with Cleveland even before those injuries, averaging just 6.0 yards per pass attempt across 2022-2024.

The Browns also return second-year QBs Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel. Neither was good as a rookie, averaging 6.6 and 5.1 yards per attempt, respectively.

Cleveland is favored in just one game this season and implied for 17.9 points per game, the lowest in the league.

Coaching & Offensive Scheme

The Browns canned HC Kevin Stefanski and OC Tommy Rees after the 2025 season and replaced them with HC Todd Monken and OC Travis Switzer.

Monken confirmed during his introductory press conference that he'll call offensive plays. This is his first NFL head coaching gig, but he has seven seasons of OC experience (three with the Buccaneers, one with the Browns, and three with the Ravens).

Monken’s Ravens teams were run-heavy, due in large part to having QB Lamar Jackson and RB Derrick Henry. But he leaned pass prior to that, with three of his first four offenses ranking higher in pass attempts than rush attempts.

Here’s where Monken’s offenses have finished in total WR PPR points:

• 2016: 10th
• 2017: fifth
• 2018: first
• 2019: 19th
• 2023: 23rd
• 2024: 26th
• 2025: 26th

Paths to Ceiling

Jeudy has a pair of top-30 PPR seasons on his resume and remains in his prime at 27. If he can fend off rookies Concepcion and Boston for the No. 1 WR job and gets better-than-expected QB play, Jeudy could score as a WR3 this season.

Risk Factors

The Browns are projected to be one of the worst offenses and passing games in the league. Jeudy also faces much tougher target competition this year than last.

He could finish as low as fourth on the team in targets and be a total non-factor in fantasy football.
