As promised, Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was at the first day of the Denver Broncos' minicamp, but he didn't do much in the way of physical activities. He revealed that the reason he was away from the team and down in Florida earlier this offseason was due to rehab following ankle surgery.
Courtland Sutton said he had ankle surgery this offseason in Florida and that’s why he was in Florida during the offseason.

Sutton is still looking for a new contract for the team, one that pays him like a true No. 1 wide receiver. And it seems that if he doesn't get that, things could get interesting. Check out this exchange between Sutton and Andrew Mason of Denver Sports:
Asked Courtland Sutton if he might hold out for training camp should the contrast stalemate persist: “You know, we’ll see. We’ll see what happens.” He then elaborated on wanting to be in Denver, do enough to be in the Ring of Fame, etc. pic.twitter.com/xzdIbpYqMi

Sutton says he wants to be in Denver, but actions speak louder than words. It certainly seems as though he could be planning to hold out of training camp if a new contract is not offered.
Sutton made a physical appearance on Tuesday, but the team and its fans should be far from settled in terms of his future with the organization.
