Freezer burn often results in change of texture and discoloration of the affected food. It appears as grayish to brown leathery spots on the food, resulting from chemical changes in the food's pigment.
Although freezer burn affects the quality of food, it does not make the food unsafe or unhealthy to eat. It produces dry spots, which can be cut away either before or after cooking. Heavily freezer-burned foods may lose their flavor entirely.

I would think you could just run it under hot/warm water and put it on a paper towel to dry. I hope it still tastes good. The water should't hurt it.

I wouldn't worry about it. Jerky is leathery anyway. And by the way, there is no need to freeze it.

Why would you freeze jerkey?
Dehydrated meat keeps for months in an airtight container without freezing.
