Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton didn't participate in Friday's practice and appears to be "a long shot" to play Monday against the Tennessee Titans, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

Sutton suffered a sprained AC joint in his shoulder during Thursday's practice and was listed as day-to-day.

The third-year wideout will attempt to practice on a limited basis Saturday, and Denver has yet to rule him out for Week 1, Rapoport adds.

Coming off a successful sophomore campaign, Sutton had high expectations entering the 2020 season. The 24-year-old earned a Pro Bowl selection after racking up 1,112 yards and six receiving touchdowns last year.

With rookie KJ Hamler also on the mend, Jerry Jeudy, Tim Patrick, and DaeSean Hamilton would be Drew Lock's top three wide receivers should Sutton be ruled out.
