Sanu hauled in four of his seven targets, accounting for a season-high 36 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 43-37 loss to New Orleans.
The veteran wide receiver did get into the end zone Sunday, but overall he is off to a stagnant start in 2018. Sanu's involvement in the offense has dwindled compared to last season, largely due to the emergence of Calvin Ridley as an explosive No. 2 option for the Falcons' passing attack. Sanu has compiled just 10 receptions for 73 yards and a score through Week 3, whereas he had 15 catches for 160 yards and a touchdown this time last season. An upcoming matchup against Sanu's former team doesn't provide overwhelming reason for optimism, as the Bengals have surrendered just 6.3 YPT to wide receivers thus far this season.
