Ten touches in loss Sanders rushed seven times for 20 yards and caught all three of his targets for five yards during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Sanders, along with the rest of the Panthers' offense, struggled during Sunday's affair, and the 27-year-old running back tallied just 2.5 yards per touch. Sanders was far less effective than Chuba Hubbard on the ground as well, as Hubbard recorded 64 rushing yards on just 10 carries. Carolina's offense has scored just 13 total points in the team's first two games, leaving Sanders' fantasy relevance in question as the Panthers prepare to take on the Raiders in Week 3.

Panthers rally to support second-year QB Bryce Young after disappointing 37-point loss to the Saints

Leading rusher in loss Sanders carried the ball five times for 22 yards and failed to catch two targets in Sunday's 47-10 loss to the Saints.

Impact Sanders was slightly more effective than Chuba Hubbard in this one, but neither back found much running room and the Panthers had to shelve their ground game early in the rout -- the longest carry of the day for Carolina was a meager eight-yard gain by Sanders. A timeshare between Hubbard and Sanders will limit the fantasy ceilings of both players, but it'll be a step up for the latter after he mostly got phased out of the game plan in the second half of last season. The Panthers' offense will look to regroup ahead of a Week 2 clash with the Chargers.

Ready to rock Sanders (finger) practiced in full Thursday.

Impact Sanders was listed as a limited participant Wednesday, but he's now fully shed his finger injury. The veteran running back looks primed to contribute behind Chuba Hubbard out of the backfield to begin the 2024 regular season, starting with a Week 1 matchup on the road against the Saints on Sunday.

Dealing with finger issue Sanders (finger) is listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice report.

Impact Sanders will have two more opportunities to upgrade his practice level to 'full' before receiving an injury designation for Sunday's regular-season opener against New Orleans. The veteran running back looks in line to handle a depth role behind Chuba Hubbard to begin the year, as long as injuries don't impact his ability to contribute, but that could change once Jonathon Brooks (knee) is ready to come off the reserve/non-football injury list and play.

Panthers' Miles Sanders pushing for more playing time after losing starting job last season

Miles Sanders arrived at the Carolina Panthers training camp this summer with a newfound motivation, eager to prove he can still be a No. 1 running back after losing his starting j...

Behind Hubbard heading into Week 1 Sanders rushed three times for six yards and wasn't targeted in Saturday's 31-26 preseason win over the Bills.

Impact Sanders checked in for the second drive with the backups after Chuba Hubbard handled three carries with the first-team offense on the opening drive. Hubbard looks like the starter heading into the Sept. 8 season opener in New Orleans, but Sanders is likely to mix in occasionally, at least until rookie second-round pick Jonathon Brooks (knee) is ready to play. Brooks isn't expected to be available until Week 3 at the earliest.

Losing the weight of last year, Miles Sanders feels lighter than ever The Panthers veteran running back has been energized, after shedding the disappointment of his 2023 season.

Getting first-team work Sanders and Chuba Hubbard both have taken a lot of first-team reps at training camp, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Impact Sanders became a forgotten man in fantasy circles following a disastrous first year in Carolina, with his value taking yet another hit in April when the Panthers drafted Jonathon Brooks (knee) 46th overall. Kaye refers to Hubbard as "the leader in the clubhouse" for the starting job but also notes that there's "legitimate competition" for backfield roles. Brooks is still on the non-football injury list after an ACL tear brought his college career to an early conclusion, while Sanders is back at full strength after a heel injury limited him during June minicamp. As bad as Sanders was last season, the Panthers have incentive to give him a second chance in light of his 2024 base salary ($4.02 million) being fully guaranteed. There's no major financial incentive to part ways with Sanders before next offseason, so a new coaching staff and front office in Carolina will at least give him a fair shake rather than handing things over to Hubbard (and eventually Brooks) without a challenge.

Tending to illness this week Sanders was held out of Wednesday's practice due to an illness, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Sanders has taken a back seat to fellow running back Chuba Hubbard over the last three games, earning 16 touches versus the latter's 56 during that span. And Sanders' output has been lacking to the tune of 43 yards from scrimmage and no touchdowns. He'll have a pair of chances this week to mix into drills before the Panthers potentially make a ruling on his availability for Sunday's contest versus the Buccaneers.

The severity of the running back's toe issue remains to be seen, but Sanders figures to appear on the Panthers' injury report ahead of next weekend's game against the Jaguars.

Role shrinks under new coach Sanders carried the ball eight times for 23 yards and caught one of two targets for six yards in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Buccaneers.

Impact Deposed head coach Frank Reich had been using a timeshare in his backfield the prior two games, as Sanders saw 27 touches to Chuba Hubbard's 31, but that got tossed out the window under interim coach Chris Tabor. Instead, Hubbard got treated as a bell cow, seeing a career-high 25 totes and turning them into 104 rushing yards and two touchdowns. Sanders' first season in Carolina has been largely disappointing, but he had at least been seeing solid touch volume while healthy. That appears to no longer be the case heading into a Week 14 clash with the Saints.
