Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders left Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs with an injury. Sanders took a big hit from Daniel Sorensen and stayed down on the field in pain. He eventually got up and left the game, and was being evaluated for a concussion. He was cleared of the concussion and was labeled probable to return but he did not go back in.

Sanders was targeted four times and caught no passes before leaving the game. He was listed as questionable for Sunday’s game with an ankle injury and many were surprised when he was declared active. Most expected he would sit out the game with the injury.
But Sanders wanted to play. He's had a good season thus far, catching 46 passes for 639 yards and four touchdowns going into Sunday. He caught six passes for 90 yards in Denver's last game and is one of the starters alongside Demaryius Thomas. He's second on the team in yards behind Thomas. Behind them, tight end Owen Daniels is third on the team with 231 yards and three touchdowns.
Bennie Fowler is the next receiver, and he has 150 yards on the year.
