The Denver Broncos' Jerry Jeudy is the center of attention as the team appears to be nearing a fire sale of sorts. With the string of ugly losses, it could result in players like Jeudy being traded to other teams.

Things don't get easier for the Broncos as they are gearing up to take on the Kansas City Chiefs under the bright lights of Thursday Night Football. A team struggling, against Patrick Mahomes, in Arrowhead, it can't get much worse for the Broncos.

To add insult to injury, even before the contest, Jeudy found a way to be on the wrong end of a pretty brutal shutdown by Steve Smith during a live broadcast. This has been a common occurrence in recent weeks, of national pundits ripping into players. Recently, Jared Goff called out Ryan Fitzpatrick after the former QB had a few choice words about Goff before the contest.

An apparent encounter between the two resulted in a few choice words and an utter thrashing from Smith. The clip is spreading like wildfire across social media, and for good reason. But don't worry, Jeudy found a clever way to respond.

"I'll say it again. I'm sorry that I said you were just a jag, just a guy who is an average wide receiver they used a first-round pick on that isn't doing anything." Smith Sr. continued, "I hope today that you actually show up in a way that you haven't shown up in the last couple of years since they drafted you."

The former wide receiver sent a direct message to Jeudy, and he didn't mince his words, "So if you ever got a problem with Agent 99. I'm sorry, for saying that you're an average wide receiver that they eventually will move on and when teams call me and ask should they trade for you, I will say no." With finality, Smith offered, "Don't trade for Jerry Jeudy. Because he's mentally unable to handle constructive criticism from people… He's a tier 3."

However, that didn't seem to bother Jeudy. Whether he heard the segment or not, the talented receiver had a perfect response after Smith called him out. Right behind them, Jeudy began dancing which completely threw them off guard.

Moments later, Jeudy could be seen yelling at the camera, calling out anyone who may be doubting him. There is sensitive language in the following video, viewer discretion is advised.

Whether he knew what Smith said or not, this was quite the memorable response from Jeudy. Things are heating up well be
