Sanders held out Sunday

The Eagles held RB Miles Sanders out of practice Sunday because of "leg soreness," according to Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal. That certainly doesn't sound like a serious issue. But it also doesn't seem great if Sanders actually needed the break in the 1st practice after Philly's Friday night preseason opener. Sanders, of course, also sits tied with Dalvin Cook for the highest probability of injury among RBs heading into the season -- with more projected missed games despite a smaller projected workload. Sanders is still going late enough in drafts, at least, to mitigate the health risk. We'll watch his status for upcoming workouts.
