Emmanuel Sanders In The WR3 Conversation
4 years agoNew Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders will be the leading receiver for his team without Michael Thomas (ankle) in the lineup. Sanders enjoyed a good game with Taysom Hill throwing him passes, though he should have a better outlook with Drew Brees (ribs, lung) slated to start. The veteran receiver averaged 7.3 receptions and 90.3 receiving yards per game along with a touchdown in a three-game stretch without Thomas in the lineup earlier this year. Sanders' volume should help him put up solid numbers, despite the tough matchup with the Chiefs. Start him as a WR3 in Week 15.
