After all the hype over the past few months, who isn’t excited to see what Courtland Sutton can do in a game setting?

Sutton has been making one big play after another since he came to Denver, blowing everyone away with his strong hands and ridiculous catch radius.

If training camp has been any indication, we can expect Sutton to be the player of the game on Saturday night.

Sutton’s 6-foot-4 frame has simply been too much for defensive backs to handle, and the Broncos have been incorporating him into the number one offense more frequently than not.

The Vikings have a very good defensive backfield at both safety and cornerback, so they will present a fun, new challenge for Sutton.

Hopefully, we get a chance to see him in some jump ball situations and I would like to see him after the catch as well. Can he work the short-intermediate game and be an asset after he catches the ball?

He can, but let’s see it happen in a game.
