Field Yates of ESPN reports that free agent RB Devonta Freeman is visiting the Philadelphia Eagles for a workout.

Miles Sanders is expected to play Sunday. After the poor performances by Boston Scott and Corey Clement in Sanders' place, the Eagles want to at least kick the tires on a proven running back. This could be big news for Sanders drafters, or no news.

I’m told there is decent hope that Miles Sanders and Lane Johnson will be able to play Sunday.

The Eagles offensive line struggled to protect Carson Wentz as well as run the ball. Scott led the way with nine carries for 35 yards but only added two catches. Clement ran six times for 19 yards and also caught two balls. If Sanders sits again, Scott would be an option for lineups as a flex but it could be a tough go against the Rams.

With Miles Sanders missing three weeks of camp due to a lower body injury, Paul Domowitch of The Philadelphia Inquirer says to "expect to see a liberal mix of Boston Scott and Corey Clement."

Miles Sanders is expected to be the lead back for the season, but Scott could spell Sanders to prevent him from further injury. Scott filled in for Sanders last season when he was injured, and Clement has been more of the third down back when given opportunities.

The Eagles must have liked Jason Huntley in the pre-draft process.

Per the league’s transaction wire, they claimed the rookie running back off waivers from Detroit.

Huntley was the Lions’ fifth-round pick out of New Mexico State, but was waived as they got to 53 (and then signed veteran running back Adrian Peterson). Huntley had no preseason tape to show teams, but ran for 1,090 yards last year, averaging 7.1 yards per carry. It could be something to pay attention to since the Eagles only have Sanders, Scott and Clement on the roster. Scott and Clement are mainly considered pass-catching backs.

Imagine Miles Sanders becoming an even better receiver? A more versatile receiver? A more explosive receiver?

That's the plan.

Doug Pederson said Monday he envisions Sanders expanding his role in the passing game, adding different routes to his repertoire and lining up more in the slot or out wide.

Sanders caught 50 passes for 509 yards last year, both more than any Eagles wide receiver. He became only the 15th rookie running back in NFL history with at least 50 catches and 500 yards. The story said Sanders could lineup more on the outside, which means Clement or Scott could be in the backfield, and both are also considered receiving backs.

Doug Pederson says they have told RB Miles Sanders “You’re the guy this season." Doug says they want to increase Sanders' reps.

This has become the story more and more as camp has gone on: Sanders has looked really good according to a lot of reports from media and teammates. It makes sense because Scott and Clement are the RBs behind Sanders, and both play a similar role - a third down back. However, Sanders at times really made his mark as a pass-catcher last season. The Eagles haven't always used a bell cow back recently, but it appears Sanders could now be that option.

It's not easy to impress your teammates during a walk-through, but Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders has pulled off the feat. Sanders' focus on adding strength this offseason has not slowed him down a lick, according to center Jason Kelce.

Kelce called Sanders "blazing fast." He added how impressive he looked running routes even in a walk-through. Sanders has added weight, according to reports, but Kelce said it hasn't taken away from his explosiveness. Sanders seems to be in store for a big season as only Scott and Clement are behind him on the depth chart at this point, although the Eagles have been linked free agent RBs.

After Miles Sanders and Boston Scott, the Eagles don’t have a ton of options at running back. Clement, Elijah Holyfield and undrafted rookies Mike Warren and Adrian Killins Jr. are competing for roster spots. Because of Corey Clement’s experience, I think he has a clear advantage.

Clement had a great rookie season and he peaked in the Super Bowl win over the Patriots. The problem with Clement is he ended his last two seasons on IR so injuries are a big concern. At this point, he looks to be behind Sanders and Scott, but all three backs have similar skillsets.
