Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas stood side by side at their temporary lockers at Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinnati last Sunday night with a plan in place. Their five minutes in front of the media in a nearby interview room would be done in tandem, the two dressed in designer suits, fielding questions together with matching grins.

Sanders and Thomas had just combined for 217 receiving yards and three touchdowns in a 29-17 victory over the Bengals, marking the sixth time since 2014 they each topped 100 receiving yards in the same game. The spotlight was theirs again, and so they trotted out for a bow. Together.
“We’re the best in the game that does it,” Thomas said at the podium, “and it showed today.”
The joint news conference was rare but far from extraordinary. For Thomas and Sanders, most of their waking hours are spent together — on the field together, in meetings together, at their lockers next to each other, staring at electronic playbooks together, at practices often trash talking to each other.
