Emmanuel Sanders expected to make 49ers debut Week 8
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders is expected to play Week 8 against the Carolina Panthers, head coach Kyle Shanahan said.
What It Means:
Sanders was acquired from the Denver Broncos on Tuesday. He's expected to take over as the 49ers' number-one receiver and should benefit from the better situation. The 32-year-old veteran caught 30 passes on 44 targets for 367 yards (12.2 per catch) and 2 touchdowns in seven games for the Broncos this season.
numberFire's models project Sanders for 4.4 targets, 2.6 receptions, 30.4 yards, 0.19 touchdowns, and 5.5 FanDuel points on Sunday. He costs $5,400 and is the WR64 in our Week 8 fantasy rankings.
