Emmanuel Sanders hopes to run it back with 49ers, but weighing options

While most of the big names have already been scooped up in the first days of NFL free agency, Emmanuel Sanders continues to play the waiting game.

After coming over to the 49ers in a midseason trade with the Denver Broncos, the veteran receiver immediately developed a strong connection with quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, and was a key component of San Francisco's offense on the way to Super Bowl LIV. Only George Kittle accounted for more receptions and receiving yards after Sanders' arrival, and it would appear that he has plenty left in the tank.

Whether he returns to the 49ers or departs in free agency remains to be seen.
