Eagles | Philly will take it slow with Miles Sanders

Philadelphia Eagles rookie RB Miles Sanders will be brought along slowly in training camp, according to head coach Doug Pederson, after missing all of organized team activities (OTAs) and minicamp due to a hamstring injury. ‘I fully expect him to come in ready, come in healthy, ready to go,’ Pederson said. ‘We have to get him in the mix early. Definitely have to see exactly where he is mentally from all the mental reps that he took this spring, and slowly work him into the mix and see just how he can help us on game day.’

Footballguys View: Sanders redraft stock has been hurt by his inability to practice and Jordan Howard’s chances for relevance early in the season have gone up in direct proportion. Sanders may matter by the end of the season via injury to another Eagles back, pure talent, or the efficiency of the offense, but Howard might be the better redraft pick right now.
