Broncos WR Courtland Sutton has a perfect career passer rating

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton completed his second pass of the season on Sunday with a two-yard touchdown toss to quarterback Bo Nix against the Baltimore Ravens.

Sutton is now 2-of-2 on the year for 30 yards with one touchdown, good for a perfect 158.3 passer rating. Sutton is 4-of-4 on passes in his career for 84 yards with four first downs, one score and no turnovers, also good for a perfect passer rating.

“We called it at the right time,” Nix said of the play after the game. “We knew that they were going to be in zero funnel, and the guy actually made a good play of retreating and trailing, and Courtland looked pretty good again on that play.”

Sutton became the third receiver in franchise history to throw a touchdown pass on Sunday, joining Emmanuel Sanders (once) and Arthur Marshall (twice). Sutton was on the receiving end of Sanders’ touchdown pass in 2018.

Sutton is one of four players in franchise history with a perfect passer rating, joining Sanders, Marshall and fullback Jon Keyworth. Of those players, Sutton is the only one with more than two pass attempts.
