Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, citing multiple sources with knowledge of the situation, reports that the Eagles fear RB Miles Sanders suffered a broken hand during Sunday’s win over the Giants.
The plan is for Sanders to undergo more tests on Monday, but if a fracture is confirmed, he would miss a few weeks.
The Eagles are still trying to secure a playoff spot, so it’s likely he would be out for the regular season if tests are confirmed.
Sanders, 24, is a former second-round pick by the Eagles in the 2019 NFL Draft out of Penn State. He’s in the third year of his four-year, $5.35 million rookie contract.
He’s set to make base salaries of $982,294 this season and $1,224,569 in 2022.
In 2021, Sanders has rushed for 709 yards on 130 carries (5.5 YPC) to go along with 25 receptions for 155 yards receiving and no touchdowns.
