2023 Fantasy Outlook
A 2022 third-round pick, Sanders was a healthy scratch for the first four games of last season, but after making his pro debut Week 5 he slowly but surely increased his snap share. It culminated with four starts in his last six games, and his three sacks tied for fourth on the Cardinals. With the team's offseason move to a 4-3 scheme, Sanders again is slated to be a reserve behind Zaven Collins. Read Past Outlooks
$Signed a four-year, $5.04 million contract with the Cardinals in May of 2022. Waived by the Cardinals in October of 2023. Claimed off waivers by the Texans in October of 2023.

October 18, 2023
Sanders was claimed off waivers by the Texans on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Sanders was let go by the Cardinals on Tuesday and it didn't take long for the former third-rounder to find a new home. The 25-year-old has not appeared in a game this season after recording 23 tackles, including three sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over 13 contests with Arizona in his rookie campaign last year. Sanders will now look to make the most of his fresh start with Houston.
