Courtland Sutton once dreamed of donning the black and gold as a Colorado Buffalo at Folsom Field.
Yes, that Courtland Sutton. The Broncos’ rookie wide receiver already regarded as an elite NFL jump-ball target by teammates and coaches. So imagine this: A CU offense featuring Phillip Lindsay in the backfield and on the edge, Sutton, a 6-foot-3, 218-pound freak athlete with 3,220 receiving yards and 31 touchdowns through college. Just enough to make any Buffs’ fan swoon.
“CU was my very first scholarship offer back when I had no idea what a scholarship offer meant,” Sutton said.
