Miles Sanders Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders broke a bone in his left hand in Sunday's win over the Giants, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Sanders will reportedly have further testing today to determine whether he can play through the injury. If he can't, then Jordan Howard and Boston Scott would likely be in line to share lead-RB duties for Sunday's visit to Washington.

The Eagles "fear" that RB Miles Sanders broke his hand in Sunday's win over the Giants, Pro Football Talk reports. Sanders is scheduled for additional testing on Monday, so we should have a better idea of his status then. With RB Jordan Howard dealing with a stinger, the Eagles could be down to RBs Boston Scott and Kenneth Gainwell against Washington next weekend.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders is questionable to return to today's game against the Giants with a hand injury. We'll watch for updates on his situation.

Update: Sanders has been ruled out for the game.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders (quad) did not practice all week but isn’t listed on the final injury report. It looks like the team was just getting Sanders some rest after he carried 18 times in Tuesday night’s win over Washington. Unless we hear that Sanders’ quad is a concern, he’ll be a RB2 with upside in Sunday’s plus matchup vs. the Giants.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders (quad) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. It's possible that Philly is just being cautious coming off Tuesday's night's win over Washington, but Sanders' status for Sunday's game vs. the Giants is at least in some doubt. His absence would leave Jordan Howard as the Eagles' likely lead back, with Boston Scott and Kenneth Gainwell behind him.

Eagles HC Nick Sirianni said Friday that RB Miles Sanders (ankle) and Jordan Howard (knee) will play vs. Washington. Both guys put in full practices on Friday, but we don’t have Philly’s final injury report yet because this game got moved to Tuesday. Sanders, Howard and Boston Scott all figure to be involved against The Football Team.

The Washington at Philadelphia game originally scheduled for Sunday has been moved to Tuesday at 7 pm ET due to The Football Team's COVID outbreak, insider Albert Breer reports. This game won't be on the DFS main slate but will still count for Week 15 in season-long leagues. We'll see if any of Washington's players currently on the COVID list are activated by Tuesday. The extra 2 days can't hurt Eagles QB Jalen Hurts, who is recovering from what's been reported as a high-ankle sprain. Washington WR Terry McLaurin and RB J.D. McKissic will have a better chance to clear concussion protocol before kickoff.

Eagles RBs Miles Sanders (ankle) and Jordan Howard (knee) were limited in Wednesday's practice. Both guys appear on track to play vs. Washington this weekend. It'll likely be a 3-man committee backfield with Sanders, Howard and Boston Scott.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders appeared to injure his right ankle in the 4th quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Jets. He was in obvious pain but was able to limp off under his own power. This is the same ankle Sanders hurt earlier this season. Stay tuned for an update.

Eagles RB Jordan Howard (knee) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Jets. RB Boston Scott (illness) is listed as questionable after missing practice all week. Players rarely miss games with non-COVID illnesses, so we're expecting Scott to be active. But you'll need to check back around 11:30 am ET on Sunday to make sure. RB Miles Sanders (ankle) isn't listed on the final injury report and should lead the backfield vs. the Jets' 32nd-ranked RB defense.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders (ankle) was upgraded to full participation in Thursday's practice. He's on track to play vs. the Jets this weekend. RBs Boston Scott (illness) and Jordan Howard (knee) have yet to practice this week. Howard will likely miss Sunday's game. We're still expecting Scott to play, but Sanders will be the best fantasy bet in the backfield.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders (ankle) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough. The fact that he was out there at all bodes well for his chances of playing vs. the Jets this weekend. RB Jordan Howard (knee) remained sidelined on Wednesday, so he's trending toward missing Sunday's game.

Eagles RB Jordan Howard (knee) is out for Sunday’s game against the Giants. He reportedly has a shot to be back for Week 13. Howard’s absence this weekend will leave Miles Sanders and Boston Scott as Philly’s primary ball-carriers vs. the league’s 27th-ranked RB defense.

Eagles RB Jordan Howard will "likely" miss Sunday's game vs. the Giants with a sprained knee, HC Nick Sirianni said Monday. Sirianni added that Howard has a good chance to return for Week 13. Howard was basically splitting carries with RB Miles Sanders before exiting yesterday's game, so his absence is a boost for Sanders. Of course, RB Boston Scott will remain involved. And we'll likely see RB Kenneth Gainwell activated for Week 12 after he was a healthy scratch last week.
