Sutton (knee) participated in team drills Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

The activity is a tangible step forward after he was limited to individual drills during the offseason program. Sutton already revealed that he's scheduled to play in one of Denver's three preseason games, though he mentioned Wednesday that he'll have a brace over his surgically repaired knee when the Broncos start contact work at training camp, per Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com. Wednesday's practice was the first of camp, with players going through 7-on-7 scrimmaging in shorts and helmets. Sutton could be limited or absent when contact work begins, given that he's coming back from an ACL and MCL tear of his left knee.
