Sanders is the
latest free-agent prize of the
Denver Broncos, NFL Media's Albert Breer reported Saturday, per a
Broncos source. The former
Steelers receiver presumably will take over
Eric Decker's role in the
Broncos' offense. Fox Sports' Alex Marvez first reported the news.
Sanders' journey to the
Broncos was fascinating. He visited Jacksonville, Tampa, and Kansas City. NFL Media's Ian Rapoport reports that Sanders
reached a verbal agreement with the
Chiefs Saturday.
Weinberg then negotiated with the
Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to another source involved in the process. Weinberg never told the
Buccaneers he had accepted the
Chiefs' offer. This all happened before he went to the
Broncos. Sanders and Weinberg also rankled the
49ers by agreeing to visit, then blowing it off.
"This was one of the worst situations in modern football negotiations," one executive involved said. "Totally wrong. This needs to be stopped."
