Wideout Emmanuel Sanders, 34, will be the latest addition to the Buffalo Bills’ roster. Sanders and Buffalo have agreed on a one-year, $6 million deal.
Sanders was released earlier by the New Orleans Saints in the team’s bid to go under the salary cap. The wideout was scheduled to earn $8 million, with $2 million guaranteed in 2021. Sanders will be joining a Bills team that made the AFC Conference title game last season. The veteran is excited to join the team as he took to social media to say, “Bills mafia… let’s goooooooo!”
Last season, the 34-year-old veteran caught 61 passes for 726 yards and five touchdowns in 14 regular-season games. In the postseason, Sanders hauled in eight passes for 51 yards. The veteran has a career total of 662 catches, 8,619 yards, and 47 touchdowns over his illustrious 11-year career. In addition, Sanders has been selected to the Pro Bowl twice, along with making three Super Bowl appearances, including his lone Super Bowl victory with the Denver Broncos in 2015.
