Emmanuel Sanders is on the injury report for a thigh injury. We break down the fantasy implications.
Denver Broncos receiver Emmanuel Sanders was listed on the injury report for a thigh injury. He practiced in full on Thursday and is good to go for Sunday Night Football against the Indianapolis Colts.
He's been one of the buzziest players over the past month. Obviously, the move to Denver launches his potential to new heights and he's shaping up to be Peyton Manning's No. 3 option in what projects to be the NFL's high-scoring offense.
Last season, Sanders lined up on the outside and in the slot with the Pittsburgh Steelers, which figures to be a role for him in Denver. Although he posted some sub-par yards-per-catch numbers and a low catch percentage, as well. Manning should help both of those numbers and Sanders will be in the starting lineup, especially with Wes Welker out for the first four games due to a suspension.
Fantasy impact: If you drafted Sanders, you likely had to reach up to get him. He had a massive Week 3 of the preseason and the Welker concussion and suspension all but solidified his status as a strong fantasy asset. He's not the most talented receiver in the world, so he could get some competition from Cody Latimer. Sanders should be in all lineups as a WR2 in standard and PPR formats.
