The Denver Broncos reportedly kept an important part of their receiver group Monday.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reported the AFC West team picked up the 2019 option on wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders' contract. According to Spotrac, the 2019 option is worth $10.25 million in base salary.
Sanders suffered a torn Achilles in December, which not only caused him to end last season on injured reserve but also will likely keep him out for the start of the upcoming campaign.
The 31-year-old fortunately had an injury guarantee, which helped lead the team to this decision.
