Huh? As far back as I can remember, Sanders has always been a hitter...
I believe it has something to do with the fact that Welker had a few steps after the ball went by before he got hit. I didn't see the Sanders hit, but that article describes it as a hit as Anderson was falling. As soon as Anderson hits the ground, he is no longer defenseless and it's a legal hit, if I understand the definition of a defenseless receiver correctly.
That was my impression also. Man knows how to introduce himself.

Sanders didn't hit him in the head.
So, what is the defender supposed to do? Not hit him?
Is the defender not supposed to dislodge the ball?
He didn't hit him in the head, right?
He didn't jump in the air, right?
Do you realize that Clark's hit on Wes Welker last year was not a penalty? On that one, Clark both launched himself AND hit him long after the ball was passed him. I really don't think you want Sanders doing anything but what he did.
