3 potential landing spots for Emmanuel Sanders after being cut by the Saints

1. Indianapolis Colts

The Colts have a quarterback after trading for Carson Wentz. The next step is bolstering his supporting cast, and wide receivers T.Y. Hilton (UFA) and Zach Pascal (RFA) could both be gone. But they still have the fourth-most cap space in the league ($46.7 million), so a dip into the free agent market for someone (Kenny Golladay, Will Fuller, Marvin Jones, Corey Davis) is surely on the radar.

Michael Pittman Jr. is a keeper, and the Colts still believe in Parris Campbell despite two injury-riddled seasons to start his career. Visions of signing Allen Robinson or Chris Godwin went away with franchise tags, leaving the Colts with the aforementioned options and/or resigning Hilton as the notable move to sign a wide receiver.

Sanders is now on the list of free agent wide receivers who should be on Indianapolis’ radar. Signing him to effectively (and probably more cost-effectively) replace Hilton, followed by a bigger splash for someone like Golladay, would look pretty good. And as a team that’s well-equipped to win, the Colts will definitely appeal to Sanders at this stage of his career.
