• Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Another unproductive day

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Sutton recorded one reception on four targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 13-6 loss to the Steelers. Sutton was an afterthought in Sunday's defeat, as he finished fifth on the team in targets. His lone reception came midway through the third quarter on a deep pass down the sideline. Positively, he was also targeted in the end zone, but Bo Nix's pass was picked off. It's been a concerning start to the season for Sutton as he has only five receptions and 64 yards on 16 targets through two contests.

• Broncos' Courtland Sutton: WRs to Sit

  Sutton led the Broncos with 12 targets in Week 1 at Seattle, but he finished with just four catches for 38 yards. This could be another tough game for Sutton in Week 2 against Pittsburgh because of Joey Porter Jr. and a quality Steelers secondary. And Bo Nix could be under plenty of pressure as well. Porter helped limit Drake London in Week 1 to two catches for 15 yards on three targets, and he should help keep Sutton in check this week.

• Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Limited to 33 percent catch rate

  Sutton had four receptions off of 12 targets for 38 yards in Sunday's Week 1 loss to the Seahawks. Bo Nix's start to his career in Denver did not go well as a passer (no touchdowns and two picks), and Sutton fell victim to the effects of the rookie rollercoaster to kick off the regular season. The veteran wideout has the skills to produce big fantasy totals, but he will require improved quarterback play to do so. Those invested in Sutton should not lose faith in the wideout ahead of next Sunday's tilt against New England.

• Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Significant role on tap in 2024

  19D ago • By RotoWire

  Sutton is set to be the Broncos' unquestioned No. 1 wide receiver for the 2024 campaign and has made improvements to his game this offseason, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports. Entering the 2024 season, Sutton is on track to operate as Denver's top receiver while serving as a reliable target for rookie quarterback Bo Nix. According to Kosmider, the veteran pass catcher often "looked like Nix's security blanket at times during training camp." A developing connection between Sutton and Nix would serve the 28-year-old wideout well for fantasy purposes, as his elevated role in the offense should lead to consistent opportunities. Head coach Sean Payton understands Sutton's impact on the Broncos' success, stating "I would say he is important, and I think he knows that." While becoming more comfortable in Payton's system, the 6-foot-4, 216-pounder has worked to fine-tune his technique as a receiver, stating "I feel like this year, so far, I have been seeing so much more of an improvement in my route detail and my route technique." Based on his skill development and comfort within the scheme, Sutton figures to be a key piece of Denver's passing attack this season.

• Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Links up with Nix for 23-yard catch

  30D ago • By RotoWire

  Sutton caught his only target for 23 yards in Sunday's 27-2 preseason win over the Packers. Sutton's lone contribution came on the team's second drive, as rookie quarterback Bo Nix connected with the veteran wide receiver to get down to the four-yard line. Nix threw a touchdown pass to Tim Patrick two plays later. Sutton's set to operate as the top target for whomever plays under center for the Broncos come the regular season, and he's unlikely to get significant playing time in next Sunday's preseason finale against the Cardinals. While Nix has yet to be officially named the starter for Week 1, all signs seem to be pointing that way given how well the 12th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft has played in the preseason.
