Summary
The Broncos face a brutal cap puzzle with Courtland Sutton’s looming contract, where every move carries dead money and strategic risk. His 2026 option bonus could hit nearly $14M, then skyrockets to $19M in 2027—with $10M guaranteed if he’s on the roster by March 10. Cutting him in 2027 saves $15M but leaves $12M in dead cap; waiting longer frees more space but still locks in penalties. The Broncos must decide if Sutton’s still worth the investment after 2026, weighing restructuring, roster flexibility, and future moves like Bo Nix’s extension—all while preserving cap room for long-term success.
