They were shortlisted by Jenn as potential candidates for her romantic engagement.

In this episode, Jenn went to each cast member's hometown to meet their family and friends. During her time in Texas, California, Washington, and Connecticut, The Bachelorette season 21 main lead tried to get clarity on who she could see herself in the future with. Out of these four guys, Jeremy Simon went home as doubts arose in Jenn's mind leading to a difficult goodbye.

Here's the episode 7 synopsis:

"The stakes are high as Jenn travels across the country to meet the families of her remaining men; with only three roses to hand out and much left unsaid, she's hopeful the visits will provide the clarity she needs."

What led to Jeremy Simon's elimination in The Bachelorette season 21 episode 7?

In The Bachelorette season 21 episode 7, Jenn Tran went to Jeremy's hometown in Fairfield, Connecticut. Then, she met his parents and siblings and got a chance to imagine what her life would look like if she got married to him.

Jeremy showed Jenn around and took her to places where he used to hang out as a kid and had special memories attached to them. It was a fun-filled and adventurous date but Tran felt that Jeremy hadn't opened up to her fully and couldn't connect with her on an emotional level. She wanted them to not limit their dates to fun-related stuff and gave Simons another opportunity to display his vulnerable side.

During her confessional interview, Jenn seemed quite happy with the entire experience and was looking forward to going on another date with Jeremy despite the arising doubts. She then met Jeremy's mother who revealed that her son wasn't someone Jenn was looking for.

Jenn was surprised to hear this after she described the qualities she wanted in her ideal partner. Jeremy's mom advised The Bachelorette season 21 star to remind herself that it was her life. When Jenn shared that Jeremy hadn't opened up to her, his family stated that it might be due to him not being ready for this big of a commitment. Jeremy's mom told her to take a decision after thinking through everything:

“This is not a game. This is not a show. It’s your life.”

Despite Jeremy's family saying he wasn't ready, the season 21 cast member reassured Jenn that he was ready for marriage and was falling in love with her.

Towards the end of the episode, Jenn gave the roses to Devin, Jonathon, and Marcus which meant Jeremy's journey on the show had come to an end. She told Jeremy that they weren't right for each other and that something might be missing.
