The Dernver Broncos have are confirmed to to trade another top veteran wide receiver.
Reports indicate Denver officially placed veteran star on the trade block, his unresolved contract situation could lead to complications in the near future.
Should the Broncos fail to reach a new agreement with their star receiver, Dallas could emerge as a logical and appealing destination.
Following the NFL Draft, Brian Martin of Blogging the Boys proposed a trade scenario in which the Cowboys acquire Courtland Sutton, suggesting that Denver may have already found his potential replacement by selecting Illinois wide receiver Pat Bryant in the third round.
“Courtland Sutton is heading into the final year of his contract in 2025 and has yet to make significant headway with the Broncos on an extension,” Martin noted. “Adding to the speculation, Denver recently selected Illinois wide receiver Pat Bryant in the third round. The 6’3″, 200-pound rookie could be seen as a potential successor to Sutton, fueling trade rumors. Being a Texas native, Sutton would be an excellent fit on the outside for the Cowboys if a deal were to happen.”
Assuming Pat Bryant can replicate what Courtland Sutton brings to the field would be a major misstep for the Broncos. Thankfully, it doesn’t appear the team expects the rookie to fill those shoes right away.
If Denver isn’t planning to offer Sutton a new deal and risks losing him in free agency, a trade could be a logical option depending on the return.
That said, with the Broncos looking like a playoff contender in 2025 and Sutton coming off a strong season with 1,081 yards and eight touchdowns, holding onto the SMU alum seems like the smarter move for now.
