Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was quiet by his recent standards in the team's 31-13 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday at Empower Field in Week 15. Sutton led the Broncos in targets yet again with nine, but he only hauled in three catches for team-high 32 yards. However, a 20-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter to put the game away salvaged his line for fantasy managers. Quarterback Bo Nix struggled to get going in this one for the first time in a while and finished with only 130 total passing yards. Sunday's outing was Sutton's first with under 70 receiving yards since his zero-target performance in the Week 7 win over the Saints. Fantasy managers can't really complain. Sutton has seen at least eight targets in seven straight games and should remain a must-start with a high target share in a big divisional clash against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 16 on Thursday night.
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had a slow start to the season as rookie quarterback Bo Nix got acclimated to the NFL, but the veteran wideout has come on strong since a zero-target Week 7 against the New Orleans Saints and has ascended to must-start status in fantasy entering a pivotal Week 15 contest in Denver against the Indianapolis Colts. Since Week 8, Sutton has gone on a tear, catching 42 of 57 targets for 569 yards and three touchdowns. The 29-year-old is tied as the WR12 in overall half-PPR points in 2024, but in the last five weeks, he's been the WR9. He hit the century mark in receiving yards for the third time in last week's win over the Browns and scored twice the previous week. Indy's defense has been stingy against opposing wideouts in their last four games, allowing the fourth-fewest PPR points per game to the position, but Sutton's high target share in Denver gives him a safe floor.
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton didn't lead the team in receiving in the 41-32 shootout win over the Cleveland Browns on Monday night at Empower Field, but he still went off for fantasy managers by catching six of his nine targets for 102 receiving yards. Sutton came three yards short of the team lead on the night, but he did lead the team in both targets and receptions as he continues to be rookie quarterback Bo Nix's favorite aerial target. The 29-year-old had a big drop earlier in the game that would have gone for a big gain to make his night even better. Heading into the bye, Sutton is as hot as any receiver in the NFL, going for 100-plus receiving yards in three of the last six weeks. He will face the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15, where he should be considered a top-15 fantasy wideout with the emergence of Nix under center in Denver.
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has gone from being a touchdown-dependent WR4/flex this year to being a top-15 pass-catching option for fantasy managers heading into a Monday night primetime showdown against the Cleveland Browns in Week 13. Thanks to 36 receptions (48 targets) for 467 yards and three touchdowns, Sutton is tied with Cooper Kupp for second in football (behind only Ja'Marr Chase) in half-PPR points in the last five games. The 29-year-old finished three yards shy of his third 100-yard game in last week's win over the Raiders and also scored twice. Sutton suddenly has become a must-start for fantasy managers as improving rookie quarterback Bo Nix's go-to target in the passing game. He has at least eight targets in the last five weeks and ranks sixth among all WRs with 95 targets. Start Sutton against a Browns defense that allows the seventh-most fantasy points to WRs.
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton's chemistry with rookie quarterback Bo Nix peaked in the Week 12 win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders, when he set team highs in targets (10), receptions (eight) and receiving yards (97) while also scoring two touchdowns in the 29-19 win at Allegiant Stadium. Both of Sutton's TD receptions were nifty grabs in the end zone. The 29-year-old pass-catcher is now up to five touchdowns on the year and has three in the last three weeks. As Nix's efficiency and confidence as a passer has improved in his rookie year, Sutton's fantasy value has seen a boost into the WR2 tier. Since a Week 7 donut with zero targets, he has at least 70 receiving yards and a touchdown. Although the Week 13 matchup against the Cleveland Browns isn't the best for fantasy purposes, Sutton should be considered a must-start as he looks to continue his hot stretch.
