Biggest winners and losers from 49ers vs. Broncos on Monday night

The Denver Broncos hosted the San Francisco 49ers for a preseason “Monday Night Football” showdown after the two teams practiced together over the weekend. Unlike the heated practices, which sparked some extracurricular activities, this game was pretty clean. Players from both sides shined, while others slogged their way through the exhibition contest. These are the biggest winners and losers from Monday night’s preseason action. Winner: Emmanuel Sanders looks amazing It was just eight months ago that Sanders went down with an Achilles tear, yet somehow he looks as explosive as ever. Talk coming out of Denver this offseason has all been positive regarding his recovery. But to see it on the field Monday night was something else. : @nfl) pic.twitter.com/1pl7SLpyjo— Field Yates (@FieldYates) August 20, 2019 All told, Sanders touched the ball twice and gained 24 yards in limited action. That’s just a taste of what’s to come for Denver’s new-look offense this season. Loser: Jimmy G was rusty, with a capital ‘R’ J
