Courtland Sutton (hamstring) misses practice Wednesday
Courtland Sutton did not practice on Wednesday due to his hamstring injury.

The same hamstring injury that cost Sutton from playing Week 14 is leaving him sidelined on Wednesday, not a promising sign for his Week 15 status. Although there is a chance that he can turn it around by the end of the week, there is a possibility that the team eases the wideout back into action with Denver eliminated from playoff contention. Keep an eye on Sutton’s practice status to end the week.
