Miles Sanders Gets In A Full Practice On Wednesday

one year ago

Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders (shoulder) practiced in full on Wednesday. Sanders has been dealing with a bum shoulder but had a week off due to rest due to the Panthers' bye. He should be ready for Sunday's Week 8 contest against the Houston Texans. Head coach Frank Reich told reporters that the Panthers' backfield could operate by committee with Sanders and Chuba Hubbard so that would obviously ding the former's fantasy value. On the year, Sanders has just 190 rushing yards on 61 carries (3.1 YPC) to go along with one touchdown and 81 yards through the air on 15 catches (24 targets). He's been largely ineffective so a committee approach makes sense as the Panthers are still searching for their first win of the season. Sanders and Hubbard are both mid level RB3 options against the Texans on Sunday.
