Overview
- Multiple outlets reported that Miles Sanders, a 29-year-old former Pro Bowl running back, completed a workout with the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday, signaling his first team visit since knee surgery that ended his 2025 season.
- ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and other reports say Sanders has been fully cleared from the season‑ending knee surgery he underwent with the Dallas Cowboys in 2025.
- Sanders is a free agent who posted a career peak with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2022 (1,269 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns) but saw reduced roles with Carolina and played four games for Dallas before his injury.
- The Raiders enter training camp with a young and thin backfield behind starter Ashton Jeanty, so Sanders would be a low‑cost, experienced option to compete for a rotational or insurance role.
- Any signing remains unannounced and would depend on Las Vegas’ evaluation during the workout and early camp, with the move likely to affect roster competition and the team’s short‑term running back depth.
