Emmanuel Sanders to the Steelers makes sense for both parties

Emmanuel Sanders enjoyed success with Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers once before. Why not let him bolster the receiving corps?

He left the Steelers, dressed for three other teams, and pulled in passes from and won a championship with a quarterbacking icon. Now, it’s time the wideout comes full circle.

An 11-year veteran, Emmanuel Sanders was released by New Orleans last week. With JuJu Smith-Schuster and his Twitch streams indicating his parting in free agency, a spot is likely to be left blank on Pittsburgh’s receiving depth chart.
