Former Philadelphia Eagles running back, and Harrisburg native, LeSean McCoy has sky-high expectations for former Penn State Football standout Miles Sanders.

McCoy, who will play for his second consecutive Super Bowl ring Sunday for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, after hoisting the Vince Lombardi Trophy as a member of the Kansas City Chiefs last year, believes the team that drafted him is in great hands with Sanders.

“People try to compare us, but I think we’re a lot different,” McCoy told reporters.
