Sanders, 29, not in any NFL camp despite Pro Bowl resume; RB market favors youth.

Miles SandersRB

Miles Sanders, who just turned 29, is not currently in the NFL despite a 4.7 career rushing average, 28 touchdowns since being drafted in the second round in 2019, nearly 200 catches, a 1,200-yard rushing season, and a Pro Bowl selection. Sanders played for the Cowboys last year but had only 20 carries (and a 5.9 average) in four games with a crucial fumble inside the 15 in a loss to the Eagles. He was limited to four games in 2025 because of a knee injury and became a free agent in March. There are over 150 running backs in NFL camps, but Sanders is not one of them. The source notes that teams are realizing that you are often better off with a late-round or undrafted younger guy making close to minimum than a former Pro Bowl older guy. Sanders has been medically cleared coming off that knee and worked out last week with the Raiders, so maybe he will find a home in Vegas.
