Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hamstring) practiced on Thursday ahead of Week 1's game against the Detroit Lions.
Sanders, who has been sidelined for two weeks with a hamstring injury, was back at practice on Thursday. If he makes it through the next couple of days without a setback, he will be on schedule to start against the Lions in Week 1. The Eagles claimed Trey Sermon off waivers on Thursday. He will join Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott alongside Sanders in the Eagles backfield.
Sanders Week 1 projection includes 55.1 rushing yards, 11.3 receiving yards, .5 touchdowns, and 10.3 FanDuel points. His salary is $6,500.
