The song was named the Hottest Record of the Year in 2018 by BBC Radio 1 during DJ Annie Mac's radio show. PopMatters' Joshua Copperman called the song the band's 'heaviest, even best song to date'. Chris Willman, writing for Variety, was more positive, saying 'The color-coded storytelling of 'Jumpsuit' doesn't get in the way of its thunderous pleasures'. Spin was critical of the song, finding the lyrics and backstory confusing, and feeling that its progressive rock-inspired song structure would not catch on at contemporary pop music.

The clip was named one of the twelve best music videos of 2018 by the British rock music magazine Kerrang!. The video ends cutting back to the original scene, with Joseph opening the back of the flaming car, grabbing a yellow jumpsuit and putting it on before walking away. However, Joseph trips while running and is captured by the bishop. The people in yellow toss petals at the bishop and Joseph, breaking him out of his trance and disorientating the bishop's stallion, allowing him to attempt an escape. Following this, he is seen following the red-hooded figure on the horse in a trance-like state. As he makes his way through the valley, he is pursued by a red-hooded figure on a white stallion who upon reaching him, coats his neck in black paint. Lead-singer Tyler Joseph climbs onto the car and states to the viewers: 'We've been here the whole time, you were asleep, it's time to wake up.' The scene then cuts to a valley where Joseph is seen laying unconscious in a stream of water, he wakes up and observes his surroundings when mysterious people in yellow- taped outfits appear upon the clifftops of the valley, watching him. The video begins with the car from the ' Heavydirtysoul' music video still smoldering, before suddenly catching on fire.
