Professional

During the 2003 season, Sutton helped the Montreal Impact become the USL squad with the lowest goals allowed total and won the Goalkeeper of the Year honor. He had a league-leading 0.73 goals-against average and the most minutes in goal in the league (2463). During the 2004 season with the Impact, the team won the A-League. On November 29, 2006, Sutton returned to MLS, having been allocated to the newly formed Toronto FC for the 2007 season. Sutton was the team's starting goalkeeper until he received a concussion during CONCACAF Gold Cup training with Canada in June. Since a team doctor did not accompany the Canadian squad, he was cleared by a local physician and later suffered from post-concussion syndrome, ruling him out of play for the rest of the year. Sutton was dropped for the 2008 season opener in favour of draft pick Brian Edwards, but made his return against D.C. United at RFK Stadium in Toronto's second game. He conceded four goals but made a number of important saves. He retained his position for the next three games, recording three straight shutouts in April. He was named to the 2008 Inactive All Star Roster for his strong performance in the first half of the 2008…

From 2002 to 2003, Sutton was an assistant coach with the University de Montreal Carabins. On May 7, 2013, it was announced that Sutton would become the head coach of the Concordia University's men's soccer team. He had been an assistant coach with the team since 2011. In August 2018 Sutton was also named head coach of Concordia University women's soccer program.

Sutton was a match analyst for TSN from 2013 to 2022, primarily covering MLS matches. He joined the commentary team for Apple TV's MLS Season Pass in 2023.
