Sanders back on IR: New team, same old story for DB Bob Sanders. The Chargers placed Sanders on IR on Wednesday with a knee injury. "All we wished for Bob was good health and hoped to turn him loose to do his thing, which was being one great, physical, highly-competitive player. It didnt work out for him or us, and we wish him the very best," GM A.J. Smith said. (Updated 09/28/2011)

Fantasy Analysis
Sanders and his injury problems continue to be an issue. He hasn't played a full season in his career. Sanders had gotten off to a fast start here in 2011 with his new team, but now he will end the year on IR again. Feel free to cut him in all Fantasy IDP formats. (Updated 09/28/2011).
The Colts released oft-injured safety Bob Sanders in February, giving the Chargers the chance to pick him up before the start of the new NFL season. Basically, the Bolts are gambling that he'll manage to stay healthy and provide a spark on defense, likely in limited reps. The one-time defensive player of the year shouldn't be touched in Fantasy play unless he stays healthy and starts out the season playing well, then grab him off the waiver wire. (Updated 5/2/11)
