By any measure, running back and return specialist Darren Sproles has had one heck of a career.
The former Kansas State and Olathe North High star has spent 13 seasons in the NFL. And despite his size — 5 foot 6, 190 pounds — he has amassed an impressive 19,155 total yards, eighth-most all-time, and made approximately $42 million.
At age 34 (make that 35 once the 2018 season begins), no one would blame him for retiring after what Philadelphia Eagles coach Doug Pederson called a “double whammy” — a broken arm and torn ACL on the same play — during a Week 3 game last fall against the New York Giants.
