SPECULATION: Colts Acquire Leading AFC West Wide Receiver in Potential Mega-Deal
The Colts' performance in the previous season was less than stellar, landing them third in the AFC South with a disappointing 4-12 record. However, they seem poised for a bounce back this upcoming season, with fresh talent in Richardson and the acquisition of Gardner Minshew. While both quarterbacks are considered improvements over the 2022 roster, there's talk of the Colts adding another impressive name to their receiving arsenal - Denver Broncos' wide receiver Jerry Jeudy.
Earlier in the offseason, the Broncos were unsure about trading their wide receivers. Despite this, speculation surrounding Jeudy, the former Alabama standout, persists. Jeudy is likely to bring in a more substantial trade package than Courtland Sutton, making him a probable choice if the Broncos decide to trade one of their receivers.
The NFL Analysis Network, which first suggested the trade, proposed that the Colts could trade their second and fourth-round picks in the 2023 Draft for the 24-year-old receiver.
Bringing in additional talent like Jeudy while Richardson is still in his rookie season could prove advantageous for the Colts, as it would help to optimize their salary cap in the long run.
Jeudy would offer a top-notch choice for the slot and provide an added safety net if Michael Pittman Jr. decides not to return. With the fifth-year option triggered, the Broncos' star receiver still has two years remaining on his contract.
