Emmanuel Sanders (7 REC – 57 Yds) hauled in 7 catches for 57 yards, including a long catch of 20 yards in the Steelers 16-9 loss to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday afternoon. Sanders in a full-time starters role for the first time in his career, was targeted a team-high 12 times in the loss. The way Sanders produced today is how his career has gone. He showed some flashes but struggles to come up with tough catches, losing many 1-on-1 battles for balls. That is a continued theme for Sanders and why the Steelers gave no consideration to signing him to an extension.
