Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton is having the best season of his career and making remarkable TD catches.
Against the Los Angeles Chargers, Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson dialed up a 46-yard touchdown to the fourth-year wideout, giving the Broncos a 17-0 lead with 5:55 remaining in the third quarter.

Sutton made his lone Pro Bowl appearance in 2019 but suffered a season-ending ACL tear in 2020. He struggled to recapture that form over the past two seasons, only logging two receiving TDs in 2021 and 2022.
However, he's remained healthy this season and is thriving under new head coach Sean Payton. In 12 games, the former second-round pick has recorded 50 receptions for 637 yards and a career-high nine TDs, third in the NFL.
Don't be surprised if he earns another Pro Bowl nod, as he's Denver's top offensive playmaker and could help the Broncos (6-6) make an improbable postseason push. The New York Times simulator gives them a 48 percent chance to make the playoffs if they beat the Chargers (5-7).
