Eagles' Darren Sproles says 2018 season will be his last

Running back Darren Sproles — who missed most of the Eagles’ run to the Super Bowl last year after tearing his ACL and breaking his arm in September — announced Sunday that he’s giving it “one more year.”

In a post on his personal blog, Sproles said he had planned for 2017 to be his final season before he was put on the injured reserve list in Week 3.

“I feel like I left a lot out there,” he wrote. “And I couldn’t let my career end like that.”

Sproles notes in the blog how difficult it can be for running backs to recover from knee injuries.
