Who Should I Start? Courtland Sutton or Keon Coleman

Saturday, September 13, 9:19 AM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton should continue to be viewed as a solid WR2 in all formats heading into a Week 2 tilt against the Indianapolis Colts. Despite the Denver offense struggling to find its footing in Week 1, Sutton enjoyed a productive afternoon. The veteran wideout caught six of his nine targets for 61 yards and a score. His touchdown came on a 22-yard pass from quarterback Bo Nix. Even though Nix showed some growing pains in this contest, his top wideout was still given a high target share and was able to produce. Last season, Sutton was one of the most productive wideouts during the second half, averaging a stellar 18.2 PPR points per game over his final 10 games. Even if Nix continues to struggle, Sutton's high target share gives him a safe WR2 projection in this contest. He is worth starting in all formats this weekend.

Keon Coleman was the Buffalo Bills' leading receiver in Week 1, securing eight catches on 11 targets for 112 yards and a touchdown in a 41-40 defeat of the Baltimore Ravens. Coleman's numbers nosedived in Week 2, though, as the team took a run-first approach in a 30-10 win over the New York Jets. The second-year man only picked up three targets, catching each of them for a total of 26 yards. He had another reception that was called back on an offensive pass interference penalty. It wasn't the performance fantasy managers wanted, but it wasn't all that surprising with shutdown cornerback Sauce Gardner leading the Jets' secondary. On paper, Coleman looks as if he'll have an easier time Thursday against the Miami Dolphins, who have allowed the league's worst completion percentage (78.8) in the early going. Coleman accounted for just one reception (three targets) for 21 yards in two games against the Dolphins as a rookie in 2024, but he's clearly a bigger part of the Bills' offense this season.
