Miles Sanders Bio

Miles Sanders is an NFL running back from Pittsburgh who played college football at Penn State. The Philadelphia Eagles selected him in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft with the 53rd overall pick. Philadelphia listed him at 5 feet 10 inches and 211 pounds at the time of the selection. The Eagles described Sanders as a versatile back with elusiveness, downhill running ability and receiving potential out of the backfield.

Sanders spent his first NFL seasons with Philadelphia before joining the Carolina Panthers in 2023. He later agreed to a one-year contract with the Dallas Cowboys on March 14, 2025. Dallas moved Sanders to season-ending injured reserve on October 10, 2025, after a knee and ankle issue. As of September 29, 2026, the NFL lists Sanders as an unrestricted free agent; the latest available reporting also describes him as a free agent after his 2025 Dallas stint. His dated career affiliations should therefore be described as Philadelphia, Carolina and Dallas rather than as a current team.
