Officially on IR Sanders (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.

Impact It was reported Friday the talented back would move to injured reserve, but the Eagles opted to wait slightly longer in order to finalize the rest of the roster ahead of Sunday's contest. Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott figure to operate the larger side of the backfield opportunities, but newly elevated running back Jordan Howard could see a handful of prominent carries, particularly near the red zone and on critical short-yardage attempts.

Not on IR just yet Coach Nick Sirianni said Friday that Sanders (ankle) hadn't been placed on injured reserve just yet, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Impact The move still may end up happening, but Sirianni did correct earlier reports that suggested it was a foregone conclusion. Either way, Sanders will miss Sunday's game in Detroit and likely a Week 9 matchup with the Chargers. Kenneth Gainwell, Boston Scott and Jordan Howard will man the Philadelphia backfield while Sanders recovers from a low-ankle sprain.

5 takeaways from the Eagles placing RB Miles Sanders on injured reserve Philadelphia Eagles to place running back Miles Sanders on injured reserve, meaning he’ll miss 3 games minimum with an ankle injury

OCTOBER 29, 2021 • USATODAY.COM

Heading to injured reserve Sanders (ankle) is expected to be placed on injured reserve Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Sanders was unable to practice this week after being declared "week-to-week" with the low-ankle sprain he suffered last weekend versus the Raiders, and he'll now be sidelined for at least the next three games. Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott split backfield work against Las Vegas after the injury, and the pair should continue to do so with Sanders now on the shelf. Jordan Howard could also be elevated from the practice squad to provide more depth at running back.

Another absence Thursday Sanders (ankle/foot) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.

Impact Sanders was knocked from the Eagles' Week 7 loss to the Raiders with what was termed a low-ankle sprain. The ensuing prognosis of "week-to-week" from coach Nick Sirianni doesn't bode well for an appearance this weekend, nor does missing back-to-back practices to begin Week 8 prep. If Sanders is deemed inactive Sunday at Detroit, Philadelphia's backfield will be down to Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott, while the team may elevate Jordan Howard from the practice squad to help with early downs.

No practice Wednesday Sanders (ankle) wasn't present at practice Wednesday, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact This comes as no surprise after coach Nick Sirianni called Sanders "week-to-week" Monday as a result of the low-ankle sprain that knocked him out of the Eagles' Week 7 loss at Las Vegas. Sirianni also wouldn't rule Sanders out from making it all the way back to play Sunday in Detroit, leaving the running back with two practices to make his presence felt this week. In the event Sanders is sidelined this weekend, he'll yield the backfield to some combination of Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott, while Jordan Howard also may be elevated from the practice squad to bolster the backfield depth.

'Week-to-week' with ankle sprain Sanders is considered "week-to-week" with his low-ankle sprain, coach Nick Sirianni told Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia on Monday.

Impact The Eagles don't consider Sanders' injury to be a serious one, but it's unclear if he'll be able to go Sunday at Detroit. Per Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer, Sirianni also mentioned the team isn't "ruling him out yet," so Sanders may get on the practice field this week and test out his ankle. In the event Philadelphia is without Sanders in Week 8, Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott will be the primary running backs, while Jordan Howard will be a candidate to be brought up from the practice squad.

Likely managing low-ankle sprain Sanders is believed to be dealing with a low-ankle sprain after exiting Sunday's game against the Raiders, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Sanders was hurt on the Eagles' second possession of the game Sunday and was unable to return to the contest after he was carted to the locker room. However, it appears as though the 24-year-old avoided a major injury. Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott are in line for increased work if Sanders is forced to miss additional time.
