Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders has previously opened up about the drama that surrounded former teammates, Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown, with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Sanders spent four seasons in Pittsburgh after the team selected him in the third round of the 2010 NFL Draft. All four of those seasons were spent with Big Ben and Brown in Pittsburgh.
In talking about his contract negotiations with Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert back in 2014, Sanders had a rather interesting story to share, via 104.3 The Fan:
“The Steelers offered me a crappy deal. They offered me three years, $9 million, $1 million guaranteed. ... I went into Colbert’s office and I told him I don’t want to take the deal. He looks at me, and he goes, ‘who do you think you are, Antonio Brown?’ ... I wanted to say F you, but I got up and told him I’ll never forget that.”
