Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton disappointed with just one reception on four targets for 26 yards in the team's Week 2 loss to the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers in Denver on Sunday. After seeing a team-high 12 targets in the season-opening loss to the Seattle Seahawks, Sutton saw just four looks against a strong Steelers defense this weekend and continued his inefficiency working with rookie quarterback Bo Nix. Through two games, the 28-year-old has only five catches for 64 yards on 16 total targets. Sutton should finish the year as the team's most targeted wideout, but right now, fantasy managers shouldn't feel comfortable using him as a WR4/flex on a weekly basis. Look for the Broncos to get Sutton more involved in their Week 3 road matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next weekend.

Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton had just a single 26-yard reception on four targets in Week 2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Fantasy Spin: Sutton is working with a rookie quarterback who is a little on the green side, so it's a slow go. The Denver offense is a work in progress, and there aren't a ton of must-start fantasy options in the Mile High City right now. Until QB Bo Nix settles down, or someone else steps up under center, Sutton's fantasy appeal is rather limited.

From TheHuddle

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had a team-high 12 targets and played 91% of the offensive snaps in the Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, but that led to only four receptions for 38 yards in rookie quarterback Bo Nix's wobbly debut. Sutton is fully expected to lead Denver's wideouts in targets by a wide margin in 2024, and volume shouldn't be an issue this weekend against the Pittsburgh Steelers, especially with rookie Devaughn Vele (ribs), who had eight targets in the season opener, ruled out. However, Sutton is going to need to be more efficient with Nix to be a worthwhile WR4/flex play on a weekly basis for fantasy managers. The Steelers held Falcons WR1 Drake London to only two catches for 15 yards last week and present another difficult matchup for Nix and this new-look Broncos offense. Don't be surprised if Sutton struggles with efficiency again in the team's home opener.

The good news for Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton in the team's 26-20 Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field on Sunday was that he led the team with 12 targets. However, Sutton could only connect with rookie first-round quarterback Bo Nix four times for just 38 receiving yards in a day in which Nix looked a bit overmatched in his NFL debut against a fired-up defense in a hostile environment. The 28-year-old Sutton is certainly going to have ups and downs in 2024 while working with a rookie signal-caller. It's clear that Nix is going to target Sutton plenty as the WR1 in Denver, but Sutton's fantasy managers couldn't have been thrilled with rookie Devaughn Vele drawing eight targets of his own in his NFL debut. The Pittsburgh Steelers won't pose a much easier matchup in Week 2, where Sutton will set up as a touchdown-dependent WR4/flex.

Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton caught four of his 12 targets for 38 yards in a 26-20 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 1.

Fantasy Spin: Sutton was clearly the No. 1 option in the passing game, but he will need better play from quarterback Bo Nix before the targets will translate to production on the field.

From TheHuddle

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton found the end zone a career-high 10 times on 59 receptions and 772 yards in 16 games in 2023. But that came with quarterback Russell Wilson at the helm, and now rookie Bo Nix will be leading the offense in a tough Week 1 draw in Seattle against the Seahawks. Fantasy managers should have drafted Sutton with the realistic expectations that he won't score double-digit TDs in 2024. Despite that, they should rest easy knowing target volume shouldn't be an issue. The Seahawks defense was a top-12 matchup for wideouts last year, and Nix could pepper Sutton with targets in his NFL debut in a hostile environment at Lumen Field. Sutton should be considered a WR4/flex with a safe floor in the season opener, and his stock could improve as the season goes on if he's able to establish chemistry with Nix like he had with Wilson last year.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton is heading into a big season as the number-one receiver on the new-look Broncos offense. He's undoubtedly the leader of the receiving corps after the team opted to go younger by trading away Jerry Jeudy and letting Tim Patrick walk. The coaching staff has noticed improvements that he's made over the offseason and he'll look to help boost up rookie quarterback Bo Nix with consistent performances. Last year, in a volatile offense, the six-year pro posted 772 yards and 10 touchdowns while catching 59 of his 90 targets. The last time Sutton was the clear number-one was in 2019 when he caught passes from Joe Flacco and Drew Lock, he finished with 124 targets, 72 receptions, 1112 yards, and six scores.

San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk would have been dealt to the Pittsburgh Steelers had San Francisco's trade offer for Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton been accepted. The 49ers offered the Broncos a third-round pick for Sutton before agreeing to an extension with Aiyuk.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had just one catch that went for a 23-yard pickup on his only target from rookie first-round quarterback Bo Nix in Sunday night's 27-2 beatdown of the visiting Green Bay Packers in the second preseason game. It was a step back after Sutton caught two passes (three targets) from Nix and Jarrett Stidham for 35 yards in the preseason opener last week against the Colts. It means little in the grand scheme of things, though, as the 28-year-old former second-rounder is Denver's unquestioned WR1 and is coming off a 772-yard season with a career-best 10 touchdowns. Target volume shouldn't be an issue in 2024, but fantasy managers need to expect some potential serious TD regression. He currently has a Yahoo ADP of 119.7 in standard-scoring formats, meaning fantasy managers aren't simply falling for his boom in scoring last year and are taking him as more of a WR4/flex.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton led the team with 35 receiving yards on two catches (three targets) in the team's 34-30 win over the hosting Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday in the preseason opener. Sutton had a catch apiece from quarterback Jarrett Stidham and rookie first-rounder Bo Nix. Coming off a career-best 10-touchdown season in 2023, Sutton is Denver's clear No. 1 wideout, especially with Jerry Jeudy no longer in town. The 28-year-old former second-round pick in 2018 out of SMU shouldn't lack for target volume in 2024, but he's due some serious touchdown regression and will be at the mercy of how efficient the Broncos' offense is under either Stidham or the rookie Nix. Sutton will have more fantasy upside as a WR4/flex if Nix is able to win the starting gig under center to begin the regular season.

The Denver Broncos added $1.5 million in incentives on Thursday to wide receiver Courtland Sutton's contract for the 2024 season. Sutton still has two years left on his current deal. The 28-year-old was set to make $13.6 million this year and $14 million in 2025 and was a potential training camp holdout candidate, but he has reported this week and now has added incentives to be productive for the Broncos. Not only will Sutton be losing quarterback Russell Wilson, who he had developed considerable chemistry with, but he'll now be taking passes from either Jarrett Stidham or rookie Bo Nix in 2024. Volume shouldn't be the problem as Denver's unquestioned top pass-catcher, but efficiency probably will be, as well as some serious touchdown regression after he put up a career-high 10 scores. Sutton profiles as a low-upside WR4/flex in 2024.

From RotoBaller

Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton agreed to a restructured contract that can pay him up to $15.2 million in 2024, including $1.5 million in new incentives, according to sources Thursday, July 25.

Fantasy Spin: Sutton should be viewed as a WR3 option in drafts given the shaky offense and questionable options at quarterback.

From TheHuddle

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will report to the team for the start of training camp. Sutton staged a holdout this spring, but his absence won't extend into camp. His contract doesn't expire until 2025. The 28-year-old wideout hauled in a career-high 10 touchdown passes in 16 games for the Broncos last year, good for a ridiculous 16.9% rate over his 59 receptions (90 targets), so regression in the scoring column is certainly due. Still, Sutton is Denver's clear-cut alpha target for whoever is under center this fall following Jerry Jeudy's offseason departure, and he should be treated as a volume-based WR3 in drafts this summer.

From RotoBaller

Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton intends to report to the start of training camp despite his desire to receive a contract extension, according to comments from head coach Sean Payton on Tuesday, July 23.

Fantasy Spin: It has been an eventful offseason for Sutton, but it appears as if he will enter the preseason where he was at the end of the last season: as the Broncos' unquestioned top receiver. The biggest difference this year is that he is unlikely to benefit from the same kind of trust throws that Russell Wilson afforded him at times in 2023. Expect a mostly conservative offense led by either Jarrett Stidham or rookie first-round pick Bo Nix, which figures to make Sutton more of a hit-or-miss WR3 option in fantasy most weeks.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton refused to comment on whether he plans to attend training camp, according to Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com. Sutton, who is still seeking a contract extension but remains in a "stalemate" with the Broncos, admitted he considered skipping minicamp. He remains optimistic about getting an extension signed before training camp begins. "We'll see what happens,'' Sutton said. "We've got a month to be able to get things situated and hopefully things get situated. ... This is where I want to be, this is home, this is where I want to hoist the Lombardi trophy, this is where I want to retire.'' The 28-year-old is coming off a relatively modest 2024 campaign in which he caught 59 passes for 772 yards but did record a career-high 10 touchdowns. With Jerry Jeudy shipped off to Cleveland, Sutton is in line to operate as Denver's No. 1 wide receiver. However, a quarterback room featuring Bo Nix, Jarrett Stidham, and Zach Wilson leaves a lot to be desired. Inconsistent quarterback play could keep Sutton in the WR3 tier for fantasy football this year.

From RotoBaller

Even though Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton showed up for mandatory minicamp this week after being absent at voluntary organized team activities, he hinted that he could hold out of training camp next month as he seeks a long-term contract extension. He's entering the third year of a four-year, $60.8 million extension that he signed back in 2021. Sutton has a $13 million salary in 2024 with only $2 million guaranteed. The 28-year-old wants a bigger contract after scoring a career-high 10 touchdowns in 2023. "You know we'll see, we'll see what happens," Sutton said when asked if he'll show up for training camp if his contract negotiations remain at a stalemate. Sutton will be the unquestioned WR1 in Denver now that Jerry Jeudy is gone, but the QB situation isn't ideal, and he will be facing major regression in the TD department in 2024.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (ankle) said he had ankle surgery this offseason in Florida. On another topic, Sutton said his representatives and the team are discussing a contract extension, but they are in a "stalemate." This explains why the 28-year-old pass-catcher hasn't been present for organized team activities this offseason. Sutton is feeling good, though, and should be ready for training camp next month and the start of the 2024 regular season. Contract-wise, he still has two years left on his deal, but only $2 million in guarantees. Sutton tore his ACL in 2020 and hasn't been able to come close to his 2019 Pro Bowl form, when he produced a career-high 1,112 receiving yards. He did have a career-high 10 touchdowns in 16 games for the Broncos last year, but fantasy managers should expect a lot of regression with quarterback Russell Wilson no longer in town.

From RotoBaller

Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton said he wants to stay with the Broncos for his entire career but is not ruling out the possibility of holding out of training camp depending on his contract situation.

Fantasy Spin: Sutton skipped the voluntary workouts because of his contract, so fantasy players will need to monitor the situation leading up to training camp. He will be a starter if he remains with the Broncos but may not be a strong fantasy option.

From TheHuddle

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was a no-show at voluntary workouts as he continues to seek a new contract. During an appearance on the DNVR Broncos Podcast, however, Sutton said that he will be reporting to mandatory minicamp. If he skipped minicamp as well, he was facing a fine of up to $100k. After Jerry Jeudy's departure, Sutton is the defacto number one receiver and he shouldn't have an issue commanding targets in this offense. The biggest question mark is playing with a rookie quarterback in Bo Nix, so fantasy managers may see Sutton take a step back in fantasy production.

From RotoBaller

Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton skipped voluntary organized team activities in May but told reporters on Thursday, June 6, that he will be present for mandatory minicamp next week.

Fantasy Spin: Sutton is expected to begin the season as the clear top receiver in Denver. However, head coach Sean Payton has talked up Marvin Mims enough this spring for fantasy managers to believe he can take that title from Sutton sooner rather than later. Regardless, Sutton should be - at worst - a serviceable WR4 with WR3 upside most weeks.
