Who Should I Start? Courtland Sutton or Travis Etienne

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton brought in a team-high five receptions for 75 yards on nine targets during their loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon. Sutton's nine targets were also the most on the team. The veteran wideout was Bo Nix's go-to option all afternoon. His longest reception went for 21 yards. Despite their tough loss, Sutton enjoyed a productive afternoon. The 29-year-old enjoyed a nice bounce-back season as he tallied over 1,000 yards for just the second time in his career and the first time since 2019. Across 17 games, Sutton tallied 1,081 yards with eight touchdowns. Sutton was very productive over the final six games of the regular season, averaging an impressive 17.8 PPR points per game over this stretch.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. struggled to find much space in a 26-23 overtime loss to the Indianapolis Colts. He finished with 13 carries for 31 yards as well as three catches for 29 yards. The 25-year-old back out of Clemson had the worst season of his young career, struggling to find efficient yardage in a lackluster offense. While it still seems Etienne Jr. is much better in the passing game than backup Tank Bigsby, Bigsby seemed to take over as the lead rusher and goal-line back. Maybe with a healthy offense and improved roster next season, Etienne Jr. can get back on track, but he will likely still have Bigsby nipping at his heels. Expect Etienne Jr. to remain involved, but not as a workhorse back in the 2025 NFL season.
