Courtland Sutton Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Broncos WR Courtland Sutton (knee) put in a full week of practice and isn't listed on the final injury report. He'll be out there for Sunday's opener vs. the Giants. We haven't heard anything about a snap count for Sutton, but he carries slightly elevated risk in his 1st regular-season action since last September's torn ACL.

Broncos WR Courtland Sutton hauled in 2 of 3 targets for 27 yards and a score in Saturday night's preseason finale vs. the Rams. It was Sutton's 1st live action since tearing his ACL last September. He looked good to us -- and ESPN medical expert Stephania Bell noted that Sutton cut well off his surgically repaired knee. His fantasy value is trending up after this outing. Sutton brings plenty of profit potential at a 7th- or 8th-round price tag.

Broncos WR Courtland Sutton is expected to play in Saturday's preseason finale vs. the Rams. It'll be his 1st game action since tearing his ACL last September. “I definitely want to be able to go out and play fast and just not think about anything,” Sutton said. “That was one of my biggest things going into camp — I wanted to go build that confidence in myself that my leg is completely fine and I can be who I am at a high level. I think that’s exactly what I want to do Saturday and moving forward with the rest of the season.” We're excited to see how Sutton looks this weekend -- especially after early-August reports that he was hesitant on that knee.

Broncos HC Vic Fangio informed the team this morning that Teddy Bridgewater has won the starting QB job over Drew Lock. It looked like a dead heat until Bridgewater turned in an excellent outing in the 2nd preseason game, going 9 of 11 for for 105 yards and a TD. Bridgewater sits 10th among 80 qualifiers in Pro Football Focus' preseason passing grades. Lock ranks 37th. Bridgewater isn't an exciting player or high-upside fantasy option. But he's steady and accurate. And Denver's strong group of pass-catchers could turn him into a spot-start option for fantasy teams this year. We like this news for the fantasy value on the Broncos' pass-catchers, especially WR Jerry Jeudy.

Broncos HC Vic Fangio said he expects RB Melvin Gordon, WR Courtland Sutton and OLB Von Miller to play in the team's 3rd -- and final -- preseason game. That'll be a good chance for us to gauge Gordon's usage vs. Javonte Williams', as well as Sutton's fitness as he works back from the 2020 ACL tear. It also indicates Denver will treat that 3rd preseason game as a dress rehearsal for the regular season. Don't be surprised if we also get the Week 1 starter at QB announced ahead of that Saturday contest against the Rams.

Broncos WR Courtland Sutton (knee) will be "managed" early on in training camp, HC Vic Fangio said Tuesday. Now a little over 10 months removed from his torn ACL, Sutton seems to be trending toward being ready for the season opener. “I feel very close to 100%," he said. "The last percent I need is football.” We'll continue to track his progress.

According to ESPN's Jeff Legwold, Broncos HC Vic Fangio said this month that he "fully" expects WR Courtland Sutton to be ready for the regular season. That follows in line with other positive offseason reports on the 4th-year wideout. Sutton, of course, is working back from a Week 1 ACL tear. The team will monitor him throughout summer workouts and likely keep him on some sort of pitch count for preseason games and training-camp practices. We'll certainly watch reports on Sutton throughout the summer. His current ADP just outside the top 30 at WR, though, makes him easy to take some chances on.

Broncos WR Courtland Sutton (knee) won't start training camp on the PUP list, HC Vic Fangio said. Sutton is still rehabbing last September's torn ACL and MCL. But he'll evidently at least be ready for some work at the start of camp and is on track to be on the field for the season opener. We'll continue to track his progress.
