Courtland Sutton Looking To Continue Scoring Binge

Courtland Sutton Looking To Continue Scoring Binge

12 months ago

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton is having a career season with quarterback Russell Wilson's resurgence under head coach Sean Payton. The 28-year-old pass-catcher leads the team in catches (41), targets (57), receiving yards (433) and touchdowns (seven), which are also a career-high for Sutton. He has scored in seven of nine games and will be looking to score for the fifth straight game on Sunday night against the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings have been better against receivers in recent weeks, but on the season as a whole, they've allowed the eighth-most half-PPR points (30.5) to the position per game, including nine touchdowns. Sutton is clearly Wilson's No. 1 target, but he's exceeded 50 receiving yards in only four of nine games this year. He's a touchdown-dependent, high-end WR3 for a solid matchup against Minnesota this week.
