Courtland Sutton A Firm WR2 Against Banged-Up Raiders Secondary

Courtland Sutton A Firm WR2 Against Banged-Up Raiders Secondary

5 months ago

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton comes into the Week 12 divisional contest against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders having produced at least six catches and 70 yards in each of the last four games. Since a zero-target game in Week 7 versus the New Orleans Saints, Sutton has 28 receptions on 38 targets for 370 yards and a touchdown while also throwing for a touchdown. The Raiders defense hasn't been that bad against opposing wideouts this year in terms of fantasy points allowed, but they'll be without cornerbacks Jakorian Bennett (shoulder) and Nate Hobbs (ankle) this weekend, and possibly Jack Jones (back). Sutton was held to only two catches for 32 yards in the Week 5 win over the Raiders in Denver, but we'd expect better production this time around with Denver's offense surging. In the last five weeks, Sutton has averaged 14.3 half-PPR points, good for 10th among all receivers.
