After a rookie season where Sanders performed above expectation and hauled in 51 catches for 484 yards and one touchdown, he suffered a sophomore slump with only six catches for 55 yards and only 7.09 yards per punt return.

Sanders' rocky 2014 season began with a four-game suspension. It was never disclosed what the suspension was for, but it was likely drug-related and a violation of the NFL's substance abuse policy.
