Eagles Not Worried About Miles Sanders
2 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said his level of concern about running back Miles Sanders (hamstring) is "not high." Sirianni said that every player, including Sanders, will have some level of participation in practice on Wednesday. Sanders was able to return to practice last week, so barring some sort of setback, he should be good to go for Week 1 of the regular season against the Detroit Lions on the road. The 25-year-old failed to find the end zone in 2021 and continues to deal with injuries early in his career, which could lead to a frustrating backfield committee in Philly this year alongside Kenneth Gainwell, Boston Scott and perhaps even newcomer Trey Sermon. Given his recent injury concerns, Sanders will be a shaky RB3/flex for fantasy managers in Week 1 against Detroit.
