According to Adam Schefter, Sanders’ visit is going very well.
Emmanuel Sanders has been at Jaguars headquarters all day. Says he likes it there.

Sanders not returning to the Steelers shouldn’t come as a surprise. Though, I’ve long suspected that Ziggy Hood may not return. That’s just speculation on my part of course, but 1st round picks seem to have a tendency to demand 1st round pick money, and Hood hasn’t earned that type of contract here. Obviously defensive line depth is a concern this year. We’ll learn more in the near future.
