Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders totaled 12 carries for 61 yards in Sunday's loss vs. the Saints. Week 17 marks the 3rd game in a row in which Sanders failed to surpass 70 yards on the ground. To make matters worse, he's now tallied 2 catches for -7 yards as a receiver in this unfortunate stretch. Sanders had been the RB10 overall in PPR prior to Week 15 and certainly leaves a sour taste in the mouths of fantasy managers who trusted him in the fantasy championship round. Week 18 will present the upcoming free agent an opportunity to get right against a Giants run defense that presents a fairly neutral matchup.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders (knee) finished the practice week with full participation on Friday. As a result, he doesn't carry an injury designation ahead of Week 17 vs. the Saints. Sanders has disappointed the last 2 weeks with a combined 12.0 PPR points since Week 15. However, the former Penn State product had been the RB10 overall in PPR prior to that. We feel Sanders is much closer to that player this week and should be thought of as a low-end RB1 candidate with plenty of volume opportunity.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders (knee) logged limited participation at practice on Thursday after being listed as DNP the day before. Signs are pointing toward Sanders being available in Week 17 vs. the Saints, but we won't know anything definitive until tomorrow regarding his status. Be sure to check back tomorrow when we get more clarity.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. We'll see how he progresses this week ahead of Week 17 vs. the Saints. Be sure to check back tomorrow for additional information.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders racked up 21 carries in Saturday's loss to the Cowboys. But he managed only 65 yards and lost a crucial fumble late. Sanders tied his 2nd most carries for the season, ceding only 4 RB attempts to Kenneth Gainwell (for 17 yards). Sanders added just 1 catch for 6 yards. He'll face a better RB-scoring matchup with the Saints in Week 17.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders racked up 144 yards and 2 TDs on 17 carries in Sunday's lopsided win over the Giants. His biggest strike came on a 40-yard scoring run in the 4th quarter, but Sanders would have averaged 6.5 yards per rush even without that play. He added 1 catch for 11 yards on 3 targets. RB Boston Scott added a rushing TD late in the 4th quarter as well, to go with 33 yards on 6 carries. Sanders gets another favorable matchup with the Bears in Week 15.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders gained just 24 yards on 10 carries in Sunday's win over Tennessee, the league's toughest run D on the year. He did save his fantasy line with a 4th-quarter TD from 3 yards out. Sanders also caught both of his targets for 14 yards. RB Boston Scott carried 6 times for 16 yards and caught a pass for 5. RB Kenneth Gainwell added a 3-38 receiving line on 4 targets and 3 carries for 15 yards. The Philly backfield gets a better matchup with the Giants in Week 14.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders racked up 143 yards and 2 TDs on 21 carries in Sunday night's win over the Packers. He and QB Jalen Hurts (157 rushing yards) powered a 363-yard rushing performance for Philadelphia. Sanders added 3 receptions for 17 yards on 3 targets. RB Kenneth Gainwell added a rushing TD among 8 carries for 39 yards. Week 13 holds a much tougher rushing matchup with a Titans defense that has been toughest in the league on RBs.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders gained 93 yards on 17 carries against the Texans in Week 9. He also found the end zone for the 3rd straight week. Those scores have been critical, as Sanders has now gone 2 straight games without a target. (He’s topped 2 catches in a game only once all year.) The 25-year-old is on his way to perhaps the best pure rushing season of his career. Just be aware that he’s likely to disappoint over the next couple of weeks as his TD rate slows. In Week 10, he'll face a tough Washington run D. Sanders tallied just 12-40 against the Commanders back in Week 3.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders posted an 18-71-1 rushing line in Sunday night's win over the Cowboys. It marked his 2nd highest carry total of the year and the 5th straight game in which he garnered 15+ attempts. RB Boston Scott returned from a 2-game rib injury to carry 6 times for 16 yards. RB Kenneth Gainwell rushed 5 times for 25 yards. Sanders claimed the backfield's only target in a game that saw QB Jalen Hurts go just 15-for-25 passing.
Eagles RB Boston Scott (ribs) is off the Week 6 injury report. So he'll be back for Sunday night's game vs. the Cowboys after missing the past 2 weeks. Scott averaged 3.3 carries and .3 targets over the season's first 3 games, so his return is just a slight knock to RB Miles Sanders' volume projection.
Eagles RB Boston Scott (rib) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Cardinals. That should mean a few extra touches for RB Miles Sanders.
Eagles RB Boston Scott (rib) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Cardinals. He’s not on the fantasy radar, but his absence would be a slight boost for RB Miles Sanders.
Eagles RB Boston Scott (rib) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. We'll see if he's able to return for this weekend's game vs. Arizona. With Scott out last week, RB Miles Sanders set season highs with a 67% snap rate and 27 carries.
Eagles RB Miles Sanders racked up 134 yards and 2 TDs on 27 carries in Sunday's win over the Jaguars. He handled 79.4% of Philadelphia's RB rushes and 3 of the 5 backfield targets. Sanders caught 2 of those for another 22 yards. Kenneth Gainwell claimed the other 2 targets, turning them into just 1 catch for a loss of 2 yards. Gainwell added a 10-yard TD run but totaled only 19 yards on 5 attempts. With Boston Scott out, Trey Sermon claimed the other 2 carries and took them for gains of 14 and 5 yards. It was the largest carry total of Sanders' career and just his 4th game ever with 20+ rushes. He rushed 13, 17 and 15 times over this season's 1st 3 contests.
Eagles RB Boston Scott (ribs) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars. He's totaled 10 carries and 1 target through 3 games, so his absence could mean a few extra touches for RBs Miles Sanders and/or Kenneth Gainwell. Trey Sermon figures to be active as Philly's #3 RB on Sunday.
Eagles RB Boston Scott (rib) missed Wednesday's practice. He's totaled 10 carries and 1 target through 3 games, so his absence would free up a few touches for RBs Miles Sanders and Kenneth Gainwell.
