SANTA CLARA -- While most of the focus has been on what the young 49ers receivers have learned from veteran Emmanuel Sanders since he arrived, it's what he's learned from them that has made the experience so unique.
Kendrick Bourne leads the wide receivers with five touchdowns on the season which all were made after the arrival of Sanders to the club.
Deebo Samuel’s 802 receiving yards leads the wide receivers group. Samuel’s production also jumped dramatically after Sanders' arrival with 42 of his 57 receptions for 634 yards happening in Week 8 or after.
Sanders' maturity and experience has been invaluable to both Bourne and Samuel but he claims the benefit has been mutual.
