Courtland Sutton is a WR2 with Upside in London Game vs. Jets

Saturday, October 11, 8:36 AM

Although Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will face star cornerback Sauce Gardner and the New York Jets defense, he will likely lead the team in targets as they take the field in London. Sutton has been a consistent player this season, outside of a Week 2 dud, in which Troy Franklin had a breakout game. With averages of 13.5 half-ppr ppg and 16.1 full-ppr ppg coming into Week 6, Sutton is likely the only fully reliable option within the Broncos' core against a defense that typically gets exploited by the run game more than the pass. Fantasy managers should keep him in their lineups as a WR2 with upside, as Sutton comes in as WR15 in the latest RotoBaller rankings for Week 6.

Puka Nacua Going for Scan on his Rib

Monday, November 3, 1:29 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (rib) is scheduled to have a scan for the rib injury that he suffered in Sunday's blowout win over the New Orleans Saints, according to head coach Sean McVay. The Rams said on Sunday that Nacua could have come back into the game, but they were being overly cautious with the game already in hand. McVay said he feels "optimistic... in regard to where we're potentially heading." It sounds as though the Rams are expecting the 24-year-old to be ready for a big divisional game in Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers, but we won't know for sure until later this week. Although Nacua was injured in Week 9, he still managed to produce for his fantasy managers before departing, catching seven of his eight targets for 95 yards and a touchdown in the 34-10 victory. If Nacua is active in Week 10, he'll be a must-start against San Fran's banged-up defense.
