DENVER, Colo. (KOAA) — The Denver Broncos have locked up their No. 1 wideout.
Following the best season of his NFL career, Courtland Sutton has agreed to a 4-year, $92 million contract extension with the Broncos, sources confirmed to Scripps News Denver Sports.
Sutton hauled in 81 passes for 1,081 yards and 8 touchdowns in quarterback Bo Nix’s rookie season.
The news of the extension came in the hours after Broncos head coach Sean Payton said the team was “close” to a deal with their top wide receiver.
Denver added to its receiving corps behind Sutton this offseason, signing tight end Evan Engram to the “joker” role that is so highly coveted in Payton’s system. The Broncos also selected the big-bodied Illinois wideout Pat Bryant in the second round of the NFL Draft.
Bryant will compete with Marvin Mims Jr., who Denver will likely ask to take on a bigger role in the offense after he broke out over the final five games of last season, to be the Broncos’ WR2. The speedster caught 23 balls for 341 yards and five touchdowns in that span.
Devaughn Vele will also be in the mix for targets after catching 41 passes for 475 yards and 3 scores in 13 games last season.
