Diontae Spencer hasn’t played for the Denver Broncos since 2021, but he’s still clearly paying attention to the team’s wide receiver room.
Amid reports that Jerry Jeudy seems to be on the trade block, Spencer, a former teammate, took to Twitter on Wednesday to share his opinion.
“Broncos crazy if they trade Jerry,” the receiver tweeted.
Broncos crazy if they trade Jerry.

Spencer played in Denver from 2019-2021, catching 10 passes for 54 yards. He was used primarily as a returner with the Broncos, but Spencer worked with the team’s wide receivers every day in practice.
It seems that Spencer, like many fans in Denver, believes it would be foolish to part ways with a 23-year-old receiver coming off the best season of his career. The Broncos currently only have five picks to use in the 2023 NFL draft, though, and a Jeudy trade might be able to get them back into the first round.
Denver is believed to be seeking at least a first-round pick for Jeudy, and the team has held firm in negotiations. Broncos general manager George Paton won’t make a trade just for the sake of making a trade, so unless a team makes a big offer, Denver might end up keeping Jeudy in 2023.
