Courtland Sutton vs Tre Tucker: Who Should You Start?
Two wide receivers who will land on plenty of the same rosters in 2026. Courtland Sutton (Denver Broncos) finished the 2025 season averaging 10.7 fantasy points per game in 17 games. Tre Tucker (Las Vegas Raiders) came in at 7.8 PPG over 17 games. The gap is real but not insurmountable with the right matchup.
Courtland Sutton carries a 2.9-point PPG advantage from the 2025 season. That baseline matters, but it is one input among several. Matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and injury reports move the needle week to week, which is why the best answer changes depending on when you are asking.
Target volume is the story here. Courtland Sutton saw 124 targets in 2025, while Tre Tucker drew 92. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Courtland Sutton, even in weeks where Tre Tucker posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.
One scheduling note: Courtland Sutton is off Week 14 and Tre Tucker Week 10. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
