According to Tom Pelissero, Broncos WR Courtland Sutton is not in Denver for the start of OTAs.
Pelissero says after a season in which Sutton was the Broncos’ best receiver with 10 touchdowns, he’s looking for an updated contract.
Sutton has just $2 million in guarantees remaining over the final two years of his contract.
He’s also come up in trade rumors over the past two years. With Denver looking at a rebuilding season, Sutton’s contract situation could be another factor that ends up influencing a trade.
Sutton, 28, was taken with the No. 40 overall pick out of SMU by the Broncos in 2018. He was in the final year of his four-year, $7,071,926 contract that included a $3,223,320 signing bonus when he agreed to a four-year, $60.8 million extension.
He’s due base salaries of $13 million and $13.5 million over the next two seasons.
In 2023, Sutton appeared in 16 games for the Broncos and caught 59 passes on 90 targets for 772 yards receiving and 10 touchdowns.
