Denver Broncos Wide Receivers (6, 19/53):

Courtland Sutton, Tim Patrick, Jerry Jeudy, K.J. Hamler, Kendall Hinton, Montrell Washington 

Courtland Sutton: Lock. Tim Patrick: Lock. Jerry Jeudy: Lock. K.J. Hamler: Lock.

Kendall Hinton may have done enough last season to secure a spot on the roster, especially with the trade of Trinity Benson to the Detroit Lions last season.

Seth Williams may be out due to his lack of time on the offensive side of the ball since arriving. Hinton and new draft pick Montrell Washington could take on former Bronco Diontae Spencer’s special teams job.

There are question marks outside of the top two receivers in Sutton and Patrick. How will Jerry Jeudy bounce back from a year in which he had no touchdowns? He should be fine, but it’s certainly worth monitoring.

Will K.J. Hamler be his old self (hopefully better) for the season after suffering a severe knee injury last year? How will Russell Wilson utilize Kendall Hinton and rookie Montrell Washington?

The answers to these questions should become way clearer as we proceed to training camp, but for now, we’re left wondering.
