Eagles News: ESPN projects Miles Sanders’ rookie season stats

Fantasy projections for the top offseason addition for all 32 NFL teams - ESPN In$ider
Philadelphia Eagles: RB Miles Sanders. 2019 projection: 174 carries, 733 yards, 5 TDs; 39 receptions, 311 yards, 2 TDs. The Eagles have been searching for a dynamic feature back since the Chip Kelly era and might have finally found one in Sanders. The fast and super-elusive third-round pick is 5-foot-11, 211 pounds and an effective rusher, receiver and kick returner. He figures to kick off his career as the lightning to Jordan Howard’s thunder. That could limit the rookie’s carries and touchdowns, but Sanders has a path to 200-plus touches due to his receiving skills.
