FantasyPros Articles on Courtland Sutton
From the article
Over the last two seasons, Courtland Sutton has been the unquestioned WR1 for Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos... The arrival of Jaylen Waddle will change that this year. Sutton still can be a highly productive player in a pass-happy offense, but he'll take a backseat to Waddle... Sutton is a WR2/3 for 2026.
STACKED’s take
Sutton's role diminishes with Waddle's arrival; projects as WR2/3 instead of unquestioned WR1.
Courtland Sutton is projected as WR30 (169.7 FPTS) versus ECR WR36, a +6 differential. Over the last two seasons, Sutton has been the unquestioned WR1 for Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos, finishing as WR18 and WR24 in fantasy points per game. The arrival of Jaylen Waddle will change that dynamic in 2026. Sutton still can be highly productive in a pass-happy offense, but he'll take a backseat to Waddle. Denver was fourth in pass rate over expectation and passing attempts last year. Sutton's per-route data remained solid but not spectacular outside of separation score (20th) and route win rate (ninth). Among 109 qualifying receivers, Sutton ranked 35th in target per route run rate, 32nd in yards per route run, and 29th in first downs per route run. The source expects the passing attack to condense around Waddle and Sutton with other receiving options serving as matchup/coverage-specific chess pieces, positioning Sutton as a WR2/3 for 2026.
