Eagles claim RB Jason Huntley

Pro Football Talk

Sep 06, 2020 · 2:40 PM EDT

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.

Related players: Miles Sanders, Boston Scott, Corey Clement

Fantasy Impact:

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.

Eagles Beat: RB Miles Sanders has hamstring injury, doing shadow drills

Inside the Birds

Aug 31, 2020 · 12:11 PM EDT

On RB Miles Sanders’ injury:
Geoff Mosher: “We’ve said for a while he’s gonna be out with a lower-body injury and it’s not that bad. What I’m told was it’s a hamstring injury that he’s got. It’s not the least mild one, but also not the most severe.”

Adam Caplan: “I’m told he’s got a hamstring strain. I noticed he was doing a shadow drill [Sunday], which is when you’re mimicking what you’re going to be doing … just doing shadow pass blocking. Well guess what? If he’s got a bad injury, he ain’t doing that.”

Fantasy Impact:

The good news here is Sanders' injury doesn't seem to be serious and one would think he'll be good for Week 1. With only Boston Scott and Corey Clement behind Sanders, and a banged up group of WRs right now, this is a situation to keep an eye on as we get closer to Week 1. TEs Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert could benefit the most.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders 'week-to-week' with lower body injury

Mike Garafolo on Twitter

Aug 19, 2020 · 11:28 AM EDT

The Eagles announced RB Miles Sanders is "week-to-week" with a lower body injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Garafolo added that he does not sense any "great concern" that Sanders will be out an extended period, so hopefully this is just a precautionary or maintenance issue. Sanders has been hyped as the workhorse in Philadelphia all offseason so an extended absence would alter the fantasy landscape. Boston Scott is slated to take over starting duties with Sanders sitting out.

Eagles look to expand RB Miles Sanders' role in passing game

NBC Sports Philly

Aug 18, 2020 · 12:25 PM EDT

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.

Related players: Corey Clement, Boston Scott

Fantasy Impact:

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.
