Miles Sanders Active

Panthers RB Miles Sanders (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Falcons. It’ll be his first action since Week 10, so don’t expect workhorse usage. But we are projecting Sanders to lead the backfield in touches, ahead of Raheem Blackshear and Mike Boone.

Panthers RB Miles Sanders (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Falcons. He was cleared to play last week, according to HC Dave Canales, so we're expecting Sanders to be out there on Sunday. But the 'questionable' listing suggests that we probably shouldn't expect a monster workload in his first action since Week 10.

Panthers HC Dave Canales said Monday that RB Miles Sanders (ankle) has been cleared to play. He was actually cleared to play late last week, per Canales, but didn't have enough time to get prepped for the Buccaneers game. But it sounds like, barring a setback, Sanders will play in Sunday's finale vs. the Falcons. With RB Chuba Hubbard out with his calf injury, Sanders would be the favorite to lead Carolina's backfield in touches over RBs Raheem Blackshear and Mike Boone. Sanders has mustered just 3.7 yards per carry this season and wouldn't be an exciting fantasy option. But he could be a volume-based RB3 or Flex play.
