Courtland Sutton News
Tuesday, March 17, 4:14 PM
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has finished the past two seasons with nearly identical stat lines, but he's arrived there in drastically different ways. In Bo Nix's 2024 rookie season, Sutton more than doubled the next closest teammate in targets. As Nix's passing volume increased in 2025, so too did his diversity of targets, and Sutton earned a share only 3% higher than that of Troy Franklin. With the Broncos trading for former first-round pick Jaylen Waddle, Nix will presumably have a new number one option, and Sutton will be next up in a competitive room that still features Franklin, Marvin Mims Jr., and Pat Bryant, as well as tight end Evan Engram and pass-catching back RJ Harvey. Sutton turns 31 in October, and while he will still be featured prominently in Sean Payton's pass-heavy offense, he faces his stiffest competition for targets since Denver spent a first-round pick on Jerry Jeudy.

Christian Kirk News
Monday, March 16, 1:16 PM
The San Francisco 49ers signed free-agent veteran wide receiver Christian Kirk to a one-year deal worth $6 million on Monday, according to Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Kirk was a disappointment with 28 catches on 52 targets for 239 yards and one touchdown in his 13 regular-season games (three starts) in 2025 in his only season with the Houston Texans. However, he did close out the year on a strong note in two playoff games, catching 10 passes for 164 yards and two touchdowns. Kirk is the latest addition to the Niners' WR room after the team signed future Hall of Fame pass-catcher Mike Evans in free agency last week. The additions of Evans and Kirk likely mean that Jauan Jennings won't be back in the Bay Area in 2026. Barring any additional injuries at the position in San Fran, Kirk figures to be the No. 3 behind Evans and Ricky Pearsall going into next season, his ninth in the NFL. After two straight rough seasons for Kirk, his fantasy value is way down, but landing in Kyle Shanahan's offense could make him a deep-league sleeper in PPR formats.
