It’s official, Emmanuel Sanders is being traded to the San Francisco 49ers.

After a rough preseason and regular season start, the Broncos decided to send off Sanders and a 2020 fifth-round draft pick to the 49ers in exchange for third and fourth-round 2020 picks.

The star receiver was the last remaining offensive starter from the Broncos’ 2015 Super Bowl line up.

When 9NEWS reached out for a comment, Sanders simply responded “I’m excited” then quickly hung up.
