Sutton Scores TD in AFC Championship Loss, Struggles Post-Catch

Courtland Sutton remained the Denver Broncos' No. 1 wideout for the AFC Championship Game, with Troy Franklin (hamstring) inactive. In the 10-7 loss to the Patriots, Sutton caught three of five targets for 17 yards and a touchdown, scoring a 6-yard TD early. However, he also had a key drop and struggled to make an impact later in the game, frequently shadowed by Christian Gonzalez. Sutton concluded his two-game postseason run with a combined 7 receptions for 70 yards and one touchdown on 14 targets.
