Miles Sanders Fantasy Outlook Inexplicably Crushed by Boston Scott Usage When healthy, Miles Sanders has proven to be one of the best, most explosive running backs in the NFL. One would assume that the struggling...
Catches five passes Scott rushed twice for seven yards and caught five of six targets for 40 yards in Monday night's 23-17 loss to the Seahawks.
Impact Scott trailed only Dallas Goedert for Philadelphia's team lead in receptions. Despite the presence of Miles Sanders ahead of him on the depth chart, Scott has persisted as a useful change-of-pace threat, with his versatility as a pass-catcher working as an added bonus. Look for him to remain in the mix as a complementary piece in Week 13 versus the Packers.

Green light for MNF Scott (abdomen) won't carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Seahawks.
Impact Scott upgraded to full participation at Saturday's practice, so he's full speed ahead for Monday's primetime matchup. Miles Sanders is healthy and remains the clear lead back. Scott has still received plenty of work on offense with Sanders in the equation, as he played 40 percent of the offensive snaps in last week's win against the Browns, producing 50 yards on eight touches.

Tending to abdominal injury Scott (abdomen) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate.
Impact In the seven contests in which Miles Sanders has been active this season, Scott has totaled 29 touches for 185 yards and one TD while averaging 17.4 offensive snaps per game. Such a workload is difficult to rely upon for consistent fantasy output, and now with an abdominal injury in tow, Scott has a cloud hanging over his head for Monday night's game against the Seahawks.

Produces 50 scrimmage yards Scott carried five times for 24 yards and caught all three of his targets for an additional 26 yards during Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Browns.
Impact Scott averaged a respectable 4.8 yards per carry and once again made an impact as a pass-catcher out of the backfield. He had at least 74 scrimmage yards in each of his previous three games and, although he took a step back in this one, he made the most of his touches even as Miles Sanders got the ball 19 times in this one. Up next is a Monday night matchup against the Seahawks and Scott could see a few extra passes thrown his way if Philadelphia finds itself playing from behind for most of the game.

Breaks off long touchdown Scott carried the ball three times for 63 yards and a touchdown in Week 10 against the Giants. He chipped in one reception for 11 yards.
Impact Scott saw his opportunity decrease significantly due to the return of Miles Sanders. Even with only four total touches, he still managed to provide the Eagles with their most explosive play of the contest when he ripped off a 56-yard touchdown to start the second half. Despite the impressive run, Scott touched the ball only once more the remainder of the game, making it clear that Sanders is the lead back so long as he remains healthy.

Effective in another spot start Scott rushed 15 times for 70 yards and caught both of his targets for nine yards in Sunday's 23-9 win over Dallas.
Impact Scott received another start in place of the injured Miles Sanders (knee), and while he wasn't able to replicate last week's trip to the end zone, he produced well with the increased workload (4.7 yards per carry). The Eagles have an upcoming bye week, which could allow Sanders to get closer to full strength. However, if Sanders is unable to go, Scott will get another start in a plus matchup when the Eagles take on the Giants in Week 10.

Set for another start Scott will draw the start at running back against Dallas on Sunday, Chris McPherson of the Eagles' official site reports.
Impact Miles Sanders (knee) has already been ruled out for Week 8, so Scott will be the lead back for a second-straight game. He touched the ball 15 times last week, totaling 92 yards and a touchdown. The projected game script against a Dallas team that has only scored 13 points over its last two games and that will be starting a third-string, rookie quarterback would seem to indicate another solid outing for the 25-year-old is in store.
