Courtland Sutton Cleared To Travel, Expected To Play In Week 17
3 years agoDenver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has been cleared to travel with the team and is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. According to head coach Vic Fangio, the team considered placing Sutton on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday after wide receivers Tim Patrick and Jerry Jeudy tested positive for the virus. Sutton will be activated and become Broncos quarterback Drew Lock's top target and tight end Noah Fant. The 26-year-old has a plus matchup against a Chargers defense that ranks 31st in DVOA against WR1s. With the increased role, Sutton suddenly becomes a high-upside WR3 and a solid play for fantasy managers for their championship games.
