Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders pays fine in connection with 2017 car crash

Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders has settled a Douglas County traffic case, pleading guilty to a “lane usage violation” and paying a $50 fine.

Sanders was running late for a Broncos practice on Aug. 22, 2017, when he got into a traffic collision.

Driving a Range Rover down a median, with emergency blinkers flashing, Sanders’ SUV collided with another vehicle when an 18-year-old driver cut into the median.

At the time of the accident, Sanders told deputies he was “running late for work” and “trying to get around traffic.”

The collision happened at about 7:45 a.
