The San Francisco 49ers have been linked to Emmanuel Sanders for some time. Kyle Shanahan said that he wanted Sanders for eight years now. Let’s rewind to 2014 when Sanders visited the 49ers as a free agent. Sander’s contract was up with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was visiting a handful of teams, including the Niners, Chiefs, Jaguars, and the Bucs. At the time, Sanders would have complemented Michael Crabtree and Anquan Boldin.
