Courtland Sutton Leads Broncos In Receiving In Preseason Opener
3 months agoDenver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton led the team with 35 receiving yards on two catches (three targets) in the team's 34-30 win over the hosting Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday in the preseason opener. Sutton had a catch apiece from quarterback Jarrett Stidham and rookie first-rounder Bo Nix. Coming off a career-best 10-touchdown season in 2023, Sutton is Denver's clear No. 1 wideout, especially with Jerry Jeudy no longer in town. The 28-year-old former second-round pick in 2018 out of SMU shouldn't lack for target volume in 2024, but he's due some serious touchdown regression and will be at the mercy of how efficient the Broncos' offense is under either Stidham or the rookie Nix. Sutton will have more fantasy upside as a WR4/flex if Nix is able to win the starting gig under center to begin the regular season.
