Denver Broncos wide receivers Courtland Sutton and Jaylen Waddle miss practice amid injury concerns

Two of the Denver Broncos' top receivers were absent from a training‑camp practice on Wednesday. Veteran Pro Bowler Courtland Sutton was seen on the field without pads and helmet, and did not participate in drills, prompting speculation about his health as the team prepares for a new season.

Meanwhile, recent acquisition Jaylen Waddle left practice early after reporting "muscle tightness" and did not return to the session. Head coach Sean Payton and quarterback Bo Nix praised Waddle’s explosiveness, but the early exit raises questions about the wide‑receiver duo’s readiness for the upcoming preseason.

The absences could affect the Broncos' aerial attack, which relies heavily on Sutton as the primary target and Waddle as a speed threat.
