Miles Sanders, Jordan Howard Will Play In Week 15
3 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles running backs Miles Sanders (ankle) and Jordan Howard (knee) will both play against the Washington Football Team in Week 15. The Athletic's Zach Berman also guesses that they'll both be used a lot in the game plan. Sanders should be the starter after he handled 27 total touches for 142 scrimmage yards in Week 13 before the team's Week 14 bye. However, he has yet to find the end zone this season and will have his fantasy ceiling capped due to the return of Howard, who is likely to be used in the red zone and at the goal line. The Washington defense, although they're missing key defensive linemen due to COVID-19, has allowed just 93.6 rushing yards per game. Sanders will be in play as a low-end RB2/high-end RB3, while Howard will be a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex in his return. Boston Scott will be the biggest loser with Howard returning.
