Courtland Sutton News
Friday, July 31, 10:28 AM
Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton and the team will meet to discuss load management for certain players, specifically pointing to wide receiver Courtland Sutton, according to Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. Sutton is not injured, but the Broncos could limit his workload over the course of the season to keep him fresh for another potential postseason run in January. It comes after the Broncos gave up a first-round pick to acquire speedy receiver Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins in the offseason. The 30-year-old Sutton had his third 1,000-yard season (and second straight) in 2025, catching 74 passes for 1,017 yards and seven touchdowns in 17 regular-season games as quarterback Bo Nix's go-to target. The former second-rounder in 2018 from SMU and two-time Pro Bowler may struggle for a third straight 1,000-yard season with Waddle in the fold and tight end Evan Engram potentially being more involved. Sutton should continue to be an asset in the red zone, but age-related decline and fewer targets have dropped him into WR3/flex territory in fantasy going into the 2026 campaign.

Malik Nabers News
Saturday, August 1, 9:52 AM
New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) is expected to practice on Saturday after his planned day off on Friday, according to Connor Hughes of SNY. Nabers is gradually working his way back from a torn ACL and meniscus he suffered in Week 4 of the 2025 campaign. So far through the early going of training camp, the star wideout has "felt great" in his brief return to the field. Managers should continue to keep a close eye on his progress, as the Giants have yet to provide a clear, definitive timeline for his potential return to game action. While his sophomore season was cut short, he flashed elite upside as a rookie. During the 2024 season, the former LSU standout caught 109 of his 170 targets for 1,204 yards and seven receiving touchdowns. When on the field, Nabers possesses WR1 upside, but those who select him in drafts should expect some early-season limitations in his opportunities.
