Emmanuel Sanders says Broncos still 'having fun' despite being eliminated

Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders says the team is still "going out and having fun," despite being eliminated from the playoffs.

What It Means:

“We are just going out and having fun, honestly," Sanders explained. "That’s my mindset: go out, have fun and enjoy football. My whole life I played this game for fun and for the love of it, and I am going to keep that energy and that passion for it.” Sanders may be enjoying himself, but fantasy owners aren't, as he's failed to top 20 receiving yards in four straight games. The Broncos play on Thursday Night Football against the Indianapolis Colts this week, so maybe Sanders will be able to get back on track in a plus matchup, but that's no guarantee with Denver's situation under center.

numberFire's models project Sanders for 7.1 targets, 3.3 receptions, 40.1 yards, and 0.26 touchdowns versus the Colts, with 7.2 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,400.
