Chad Johnson has big praise for Broncos’ wide receivers

Former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson was a six-time Pro Bowler and three-time first-team All-Pro during his time in the NFL. Johnson, who led the NFL in receiving yards in 2006, knows talent when he sees it.

After rookie Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy posted a video on Twitter showing off his impressive footwork, Johnson tweeted that Denver has three No. 1-caliber receivers in Jeudy, Courtland Sutton and KJ Hamler.

Before the draft, Johnson tweeted that Jeudy was the best wide receiver in this year’s class.

Johnson clearly believes Jeudy and Sutton will be a dangerous duo.

Johnson has also praised Hamler’s footwork on Twitter.

Last October, Johnson tweeted that Sutton had emerged as Denver’s No. 1 wide receiver even before the team traded Emmanuel Sanders.

During his 11-year career in the NFL, Johnson caught 766 passes for 11,059 yards and 67 touchdowns. Near the end of his football career, Johnson spent two seasons playing in Canada and one season playing in Mexico.
