Ineffective in season finale Sanders rushed 11 times for 33 yards in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Giants.

Impact Sanders was able to suit up after being limited in practice by a knee issue, but he failed to make his usual impact. His 3.0 yards per carry represented his second-lowest mark of the season, and the Eagles seemingly didn't want to overwork him, as he only saw the field for 29 offensive snaps. It wasn't a triumphant conclusion to the season, but the fourth-year back nonetheless finished the year with career highs in rushing yards (1,269) and touchdowns (11). With the Eagles' win securing a first-round bye, Sanders could be back to full strength for the team's first playoff game in the divisional round.

Cleared for Sunday Sanders (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Giants, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Impact Sanders will lead the backfield, per usual, as Philadelphia looks to earn the No. 1 seed in the NFC. The real question is whether quarterback Jalen Hurts, who is listed as questionable, will return from his shoulder injury this week or in the playoffs. Either way, Sanders has a nice matchup against a Giants defense that won't have star lineman Leonard Williams (neck) available for a game with no playoff implications on New York's side. Sanders might get a chance to run the ball against the Giants' second-string defense at some point this Sunday.

Eagles not hitting 'panic button' amid late-season struggles

The Eagles were coasting in the NFC just a few weeks ago. Now they need a win Sunday to get on track before the postseason begins.

JANUARY 6, 2023

Another limited showing Sanders (knee) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.

Impact Sanders has been working under practice restrictions for two weeks running as he deals with a knee injury, with Thursday's limited listing marking his second in a row. The issue didn't hold him back too much this past Sunday against the Saints, as he paced Eagles running backs in snaps (22 of 55) and touches (12). While Boston Scott and Kenneth Gainwell combined for the other 33 snaps, they also earned just four touches between them. In the end, Friday's injury will reveal whether or not Sanders heads into the weekend with an injury designation for Sunday's contest versus the Giants.

Limited by knee issue Sanders (knee) was a limited participant at Wednesday's walk-through practice.

Impact Sanders seems to be a step ahead of last week, when he opened prep as a non-participant before returning to the field in a limited fashion Thursday. He then upgraded to full activity Friday and went on to pace the Eagles backfield this past Sunday against the Saints, playing 22 of 55 offensive snaps while logging 12 carries for 61 yards. Meanwhile, Boston Scott (18 snaps) and Kenneth Gainwell (15 snaps) combined for four touches for 23 yards from scrimmage. Assuming he progresses as the week goes on and is able to suit up for Sunday's game versus the Giants, Sanders again will be Philadelphia's leading runner, especially with the NFC East title and No. 1 seed in the NFC still undecided.

Benefits from late production Sanders rushed the ball 12 times for 61 yards in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Saints.

Impact The Eagles found themselves down 13-0 by late in the second quarter, an indication of their struggles to get anything going offensively early in the game. As a result, Sanders had only two rushes for nine yards at halftime. He rebounded to some degree in the second half and managed a long gain of 14 yards. While Sanders has surpassed 1,000 rushing yards in a season for the first time in his career, he has failed to surpass 65 rushing yards in four of his last five games.

Clear for Sunday Sanders (knee) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game versus the Saints, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Sanders ramped up his activity level as Week 17 prep went on, sitting out Wednesday's walkthrough before returning as a limited participant Thursday and logging a full session to wrap it up. John McMullen of SI.com reported Friday that Sanders donned a brace to stabilize his knee in practice this week, so even though he's entering the weekend without a designation, it's unclear if he'll be able to handle his normal workload. If Sanders ends up yielding some reps to the rest of the Eagles backfield, Kenneth Gainwell, Boston Scott and perhaps Trey Sermon stand to benefit.
