“I was just — on that certain play, I got held,” he said when asked about the incident. “I was just frustrated because we didn’t have things going, so I was out there playing with frustration wanting to make a play for my team. I feel like at that point, I was just held and that should’ve been called, but I have to know how to control my anger and just move on from there.”
Jeudy finished the game with 8 receptions for 78 yards and 3 touchdowns.
