NFL DRAFT ROOKIE GUIDE IS NOW LIVE!
The Denver Broncos don't sound too concerned with wide receiver Courtland Sutton missing the start of the team's voluntary offseason workouts earlier this week. "It's 100 percent voluntary. It's the first week of the offseason program. Sean has talked to Courtland; I've talked to Courtland. He's in a good place, and I'll just leave it at that," general manager George Paton said. Sutton reportedly didn't show up because he wants a new contract, especially after scoring a career-high 10 touchdowns in 2023. The 28-year-old has two years left on his current deal, but only $2 million is guaranteed. We have a ways to go before this comes an official holdout, but fantasy managers should expect plenty of regression in the TD department. Sutton should see plenty of targets with Jerry Jeudy now gone, but the QB situation in Denver is one of the worst in the league.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton did not report on Monday for the start of voluntary offseason workouts as he seeks a new contract, according to a source. Sutton is going on his 10th starting quarterback in seven seasons in Denver and has only $2 million guaranteed left on his current deal. He had 10 touchdowns in 2023 while ranking 56th in the league in targets (90). The former second-round pick in 2018 out of SMU also had 59 receptions for 772 yards last year, but now that Russell Wilson is in Pittsburgh and the Broncos currently have Jarrett Stidham as their starter under center, Sutton is due for some big regression (mainly in the TD department) in 2024 if he sticks around in Denver. Even with Jerry Jeudy also gone, the 28-year-old Sutton could struggle to come close to another 1,000-yard season with more questions at QB.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (ankle) wouldn't mind forgetting his performance in the Week 18 regular season finale loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, but it didn't put a damper on what was a memorable year for the sixth-year receiver. Sutton injured his ankle in the 27-14 loss and finished with only one reception on four targets for two yards. The 28-year-old pass-catcher finished an ultra-productive season with a total of 59 catches on 90 targets for 772 yards and a career-high 10 touchdowns. His previous high in TDs was set in his second season in 2019, when he had six. It was surely an impressive year for Sutton, but the majority of his fantasy production was propped up by his reliance on finding the end zone and his chemistry with quarterback Russell Wilson, who is expected to be cut in March.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (concussion) suffered a concussion in Week 16 that kept him out of the Week 17 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, but he was able to practice in full on Thursday and Friday and has been cleared to return for the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders. The 28-year-old has had a fabulous 2023 season, catching a career-high 10 touchdowns, which is tied for third among all wideouts. But despite his red-zone prowess, Sutton ranks as the WR27 in half-PPR points with only 58 receptions for 770 yards in his 15 games played. All of his production this year came with Russell Wilson at quarterback for the Broncos, so Sutton probably won't be worth his DFS price for the regular season finale now that Jarrett Stidham is Denver's starter under center.
Jan 6, 2024 1:41 PM EST
It looks as though Denver Broncos wide receivers Courtland Sutton (concussion) and Marvin Mims Jr. (hamstring) will both be returning after one-game absences to play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders. Both wideouts were upgraded to full participants in practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Sutton and Mims still need to gain final clearance from the league's concussion protocol before Sunday, but it appears they are well on their way. The 28-year-old Sutton is sitting at only 770 receiving yards on 58 catches over 15 games this year, but he's scored a career-high 10 touchdowns. However, all that damage came with quarterback Russell Wilson, who is now benched. With Jarrett Stidham starting, Sutton is a DFS receiver to fade if he's active in Week 18.
Jan 4, 2024 7:25 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receivers Courtland Sutton (concussion) and Marvin Mims Jr. (hamstring) were both able to practice on a limited basis on Wednesday ahead of their team's Week 18 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Sutton and Mims both missed Denver's Week 17 win over the Los Angeles Chargers but appear to be on the right track heading into the regular-season finale. That being said, the Broncos are already eliminated from playoff contention, so they could opt to err on the side of caution and hold their receivers out of action in Week 18. Stay tuned to both players' final injury statuses heading into the weekend. Jerry Jeudy, Brandon Johnson, and Lil'Jordan Humphrey served as the team's top receivers last week and would presumably do so again this weekend if Sutton and Mims don't play.
Jan 3, 2024 9:28 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (concussion) remains in concussion protocol after missing all three practices this week. He has officially been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Denver's offense will find itself shorthanded this weekend with Sutton sidelined and quarterback Russell Wilson benched. Although Jerry Jeudy and Marvin Mims Jr. are expected to earn increased snaps this week, they will be difficult to trust in fantasy football with Jarrett Stidham quarterbacking the team.
Dec 29, 2023 4:37 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol and missed his second straight practice of the week on Thursday. Sutton was forced from Denver's Christmas Eve loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday due to a concussion and is now in jeopardy of missing his first game of the year in Week 17 against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers. The 28-year-old had a career year in 2023, but it's looking like fantasy managers may be without him during their championship matchups this week. Rookie Marvin Mims Jr. (hamstring) popped up on the injury report on Thursday, too, so Jerry Jeudy and Brandon Johnson could have much bigger roles in the passing game in a great matchup against the Bolts. On the flip side, with quarterback Russell Wilson now benched, all of Denver's pass-catchers are even less attractive in fantasy.
Dec 28, 2023 7:39 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (concussion) was not present at the team's practice on Wednesday after suffering a concussion in Sunday night's Christmas Eve loss to the New England Patriots. The 28-year-old gave fantasy managers a donut as an early Christmas present on Sunday when he failed to corral his only target against the Pats before getting hurt. He'll need to pass through the league's concussion protocol this week if he wants to play in Week 17 against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers. Given the fact that the Broncos' playoff chances are hanging by a thread at this point, it seems likely Sutton will be held out this week. Jerry Jeudy, Brandon Johnson and rookie Marvin Mims Jr. could should all see more targets if Sutton misses this Sunday's game, but their fantasy ceilings will also be limited now that Denver is turning its offense over to quarterback Jarrett Stidham for the final two weeks.
Dec 27, 2023 6:38 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will not return on Sunday night due to a concussion. Sutton has been the main contributor in the passing game and has been the most consistent offensive player to find the end zone for the Broncos. Head injuries, whether it's a concussion or not, usually hold players out more often than not, so this is a bit of a worrisome injury at the moment. While he's out, Jordan McLaughlin and Marvin Mims Jr. have been getting the bulk of the targets in this matchup. Fantasy managers will want to check back after the game to see how long Sutton will be out as he goes through concussion protocol. Mims and Jerry Jeudy will be seeing the targets for the rest of this contest.
Dec 24, 2023 10:05 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton caught five passes for 71 yards in a Week 15 loss to the Detroit Lions. Sutton has shown a nose for the end zone in 2023 as he has 10 touchdowns on just 58 receptions. He will look to keep it going in Week 16's home matchup against the New England Patriots on Sunday night. The Patriots have been a decent matchup for wide receivers as they are allowing the 12th-most fantasy points per game to the position this season. Sutton is easily Russell Wilson's favorite target when Denver drops back to pass and will be on the map as a low-end WR2 in Week 16.
Dec 24, 2023 8:37 AM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was unable to find the end zone in the Week 15 blowout loss to the Detroit Lions for only the fourth time this year. He remained stuck on 10 touchdowns for the season, but he still had a solid performance in the 42-17 loss to Detroit by catching a team-high five of his six targets for 71 yards, which was only three yards shy of the team's receiving leader in Jerry Jeudy. Four of the 28-year-old's five catches went for over 10 yards. It was the second time in the last three games that Sutton has topped 70 receiving yards, although Sutton surprisingly has not had a 100-yard game yet in 2023. Sutton has a bit of bust potential if he doesn't find the end zone, but he will continue to be quarterback Russell Wilson's most reliable target and will have WR2 upside yet again in Week 16 against the New England Patriots.
Dec 17, 2023 1:40 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton should be locked into all starting fantasy lineups as a WR2 in Week 15 for the Saturday night game against the Detroit Lions. Sutton is tied for second among all wideouts with 10 touchdowns in 13 games this year, which has obviously made him extremely valuable in fantasy in 2023. He has scored in all but three games this year and is the clear favorite of quarterback Russell Wilson, especially in big moments. Sutton's 79 targets rank only 38th in the league at his position, but he's made up for it with a career-high 67.1% catch rate. The 28-year-old will have a good chance for his 11th TD of the year against a Lions defense that has been a top-10 matchup for opposing receivers all year. In the last five weeks, they've allowed the fourth-most half-PPR points to pass-catchers, including eight touchdowns (second-most).
Dec 16, 2023 11:03 AM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton continued a stellar 2023 season in Sunday's 24-7 win over the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers in Week 14. He had only three receptions for a team-high 62 receiving yards in the contest, but he managed to find the end zone for the 10th time on the season on an outstanding one-handed, 46-yard catch from quarterback Russell Wilson in the third quarter. The 28-year-old has hands-down been Denver's offensive MVP this year, and he's now found paydirt in seven of the last eight games. He's failed to score a touchdown in only three games in 2023. Sutton has become a top-15 fantasy wideout because of his nose for the end zone and his strong chemistry with Wilson in the biggest moments. He'll have a great opportunity to keep the good times rolling in Week 15 against the Detroit Lions, too.
Dec 11, 2023 12:15 AM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has been a touchdown machine in 2023 with a career-high nine scores in 12 games, which ranks third among all wideouts, behind only Tyreek Hill (12) and Mike Evans (10). He broke a five-game TD streak in Week 12 but returned to the end zone in last week's loss to the Houston Texans. The 28-year-old is the WR15 overall in half-PPR scoring and is a must-start, low-end WR2 in Week 14 for a juicy matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, a defense that has given up the third-most half-PPR points per game (33.2) to opposing pass-catchers in 2023. The Broncos couldn't get into a rhythm last week against the Houston Texans on offense, but they should be able to bounce back on Sunday against LA, and Sutton will continue to be the focal point through the air.
Dec 9, 2023 1:53 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton continued his scoring ways in Week 13's 22-17 loss to the Houston Texans on Sunday when he found the end zone for the ninth time this year. Sutton broke a five-game TD streak in last week's win over the Cleveland Browns, but he was able to get into the end zone again in Week 13 on a 45-yard bomb deep down the field to get the Broncos back into the game in the second half. Sutton only had two receptions on the day, but he did lead the team with seven targets as he continues to be quarterback Russell Wilson's favorite target through the air. The 28-year-old has had a high floor as a WR3/flex in fantasy lineups in 2023 and could continue to thrive in a good matchup next week against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers.
Dec 3, 2023 11:46 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton snapped a five-game touchdown streak in last week's win over the Cleveland Browns, catching three of his six targets for 61 yards. Sutton, who is tied for third among wideouts this year with eight touchdowns in 11 games, will be looking to start a new touchdown streak against the Houston Texans in Week 13, but it won't be easy. The Texans defense has been an OK matchup for opposing wideouts this year, but Houston has allowed just six total touchdowns to the position. Although Sutton has seen double-digit targets only twice this year, he's still quarterback Russell Wilson's go-to target, especially in the red zone. Sutton has relied on TDs for his fantasy value in 2023, but he should have a solid floor this weekend as a low-end WR2/high-end WR3 against the Texans.
Dec 2, 2023 1:55 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton tied for the team-high in catches (three) and targets (six) while going for a team-high 61 receiving yards in the 29-12 Week 12 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Sutton had a couple clutch receptions and averaged a healthy 20.3 yards per catch, but the main storyline in this one was that he failed to extend his touchdown streak to six games. The 28-year-old came close, as was three yards shy of a touchdown on the team's opening drive and also had a ball slip through his outstretched arms in the back of the end zone later in the game. It was only the third game this year that Sutton hasn't found paydirt. Still, he's quarterback Russell Wilson's favorite target by far and has a great chance to find the end zone again next week against the Houston Texans.
Nov 27, 2023 12:52 AM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has been Denver's offensive MVP through 11 weeks in 2023 with 45 receptions (62 targets) for 499 yards and a career-high eight touchdowns. He has really had a nose for the end zone in 2023 and is quarterback Russell Wilson's go-to target in the biggest moments. Sutton has scored in each of the last five games, but that TD streak will be put to the test in Week 12 against a Cleveland Browns defense that is allowing the second-fewest half-PPR points to receivers (20.7) per game, including just six touchdowns all year. The Browns secondary is vulnerable due to some recent injuries, but still, Sutton has clear bust potential this Sunday if he cannot find the end zone for the sixth straight game. The 28-year-old has been targeted double-digit times just twice this year and has topped 50 yard receiving in only half of his games played.
Nov 25, 2023 11:35 AM EST
When the Denver Broncos have needed a big play this year, wide receiver Courtland Sutton has come through time and time again. That was again the case in the 21-20 Sunday night win over the Minnesota Vikings, as Sutton caught the game-winning touchdown on a 15-yard jump ball in the end zone late in the fourth quarter to give Denver their fourth straight win. It was the 28-year-old's career-high eighth TD of the year, and he has now found paydirt in five straight games and eight of his 10 games this year. The touchdown machine only had four receptions on five targets -- one on a fantastic one-handed grab in which he was also being held -- but it was still good enough to lead the team with 66 yards. Sutton's chemistry with quarterback Russell Wilson has been strong as ever, although he has the potential to disappoint fantasy managers if he cannot find the end zone. Scoring for a sixth consecutive game will be difficult in Week 12 against the Cleveland Browns.
