MILES SANDERS NEWS

Starting in return to field Sanders (hamstring) is active and starting Sunday's game against the Rams, Chris McPherson of the Eagles' official site reports.

Impact After sitting out Week 1 due to a lingering hamstring injury, Sanders put in full practices in advance of this contest and declared himself 100 percent healthy Friday. It appears the aforementioned absence was precautionary, but it'll be interesting to see if he'll handle a similar workload to the second half of the 2019 season, when he received at least 70 percent of the offensive snaps in six of the final eight games (including playoffs). During that stretch, he totaled 763 yards from scrimmage and four touchdowns. If Sanders yields work, Boston Scott and Corey Clement are the candidates to fill in out of the Eagles backfield.

After sitting out Week 1 with a hamstring injury, he's expected to get the start Sunday afternoon against the Rams. It remains to be seen how much Boston Scott and Corey Clement will mix in off the bench.

Trending toward Week 2 return Sanders (hamstring) is "on track" to play Sunday against the Rams, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News previously noted that coach Doug Pederson expects Sanders to practice fully Wednesday, and if that's the case and the running back doesn't experience any setbacks in the process, then Sanders would clearly be trending toward reclaiming his role as the Eagles' lead back in Week 2

SEPTEMBER 16, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to put in full workout Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said he expects Sanders (hamstring) to practice fully Wednesday, Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reports.

Impact The Eagles will release their first practice report of Week 2 later Wednesday, which will reveal whether Sanders was in fact a full participant in the session. Labeled as day-to-day by Pederson heading into last week, Sanders logged three consecutive limited practices before being listed as questionable and ultimately ruled out ahead of the Eagles' eventual Week 1 loss to Washington. Assuming Sanders gains clearance for Week 2, he should settle back into a starting role, though the Eagles could limit his workload more than usual as he looks to move past the hamstring issue he picked up during training camp.

Will see more work in practice Sanders (hamstring) will have his workload increased in practice this week, Vaughn Washington of the Eagles' official site reports.

Impact Nearly a month has passed since the injury originally surfaced, but Sanders didn't recover as fast as hoped and was forced to sit out of the Eagles' Week 1 loss to Washington. It sounds as if he has an increasingly good shot to suit up for Week 2, however, albeit with an uncertain workload coming off the injury.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Still day-to-day Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Sanders (hamstring) remains "day-to-day," Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.

Impact Sanders wasn't able to take the field Week 1 against Washington, but he looks to have a real shot at returning Sunday versus the Rams. Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports that Sanders, who logged three limited practice sessions last week, now intends to begin ramping up his workload. More concrete information about Sanders' health may be made available when the Eagles' first practice report of the week is released Wednesday.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Hopeful for Week 2 The Eagles have "decent hope" that Sanders (hamstring) will be available for Sunday's game against the Rams, John Clark of NBCSports Philadelphia reports.

Impact Sanders sat out Philadelphia's season-opening loss to Washington due to the hamstring injury that's plagued him since the later stages of training camp, but he did manage to log a trio of limited practices leading up to the contest. There's reason to be optimistic about Sanders' chances of retaking the field Week 2, though it's possible he could be hindered even if available. Boston Scott and Corey Clement remain on deck to fill Sanders' shoes if his injury lingers into Sunday, with Jason Huntley also around as an emergency option.
