News

  • Won't play this week

    Sproles (quadriceps) won't play Week 6 against the Vikings, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.

    Analysis: With Sproles out for at least one game and possibly more, Corey Clement bumps up the the No. 3 running back spot, which could involve some snaps on passing downs or in the two-minute drill. Clement also is a candidate to replace Sproles on punt returns, along with Nelson Agholor, per Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia.

  • Considered week-to-week

    Sproles is week-to-week due to a quadriceps strain, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

    Analysis: While an exact timetable for Sproles' recovery remains undisclosed, it's safe to bet that the 14-year pro will miss some time as he tends to this injury. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) also sidelined, expect Nelson Agholor and Corey Clement to handle punt return duties for the time being. Sproles' absence also may signify a slight uptick in available touches for Jordan Howard and Miles Sanders.

  • Tending to quad injury

    Sproles is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Jets due to a quadriceps injury, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.

    Analysis: Sproles' usage has dwindled as the season has gone on, culminating in three carries for four yards and three punt returns for 28 yards Week 5. That is, if he's unable to return. It's unclear who will handle punt returns in Sproles' place, as the 14-year pro is the only Eagle to handle them this season.

  • Just one touch in win

    Sproles rushed one time for four yards and saw no targets in Thursday's 34-27 win over the Packers.

    Analysis: Sproles saw no targets in the passing game for the second straight week, and he played just seven snaps. Meanwhile, Jordan Howard and Miles Sanders played 33 and 22 snaps, respectively, and were very effective with their touches. The Kansas State product looks like he'll continue to mix in behind his younger counterparts as the Eagles head back home for a Week 5 matchup with the Jets.

  • Non-factor in loss

    Sproles rushed twice for four yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Lions.

    Analysis: Sproles got one carry in the first quarter, saw his only target in the third, and finished with his longest rushing attempt of the day for three yards in the fourth quarter. He saw one more target on the game's last drive but was called for offensive pass interference, and the play was negated. While he wasn't productive, the 36-year-old still led the Eagles' backfield in snaps by one over Miles Sanders with 27. Jordan Howard wasn't far behind with 25. The Eagles backfield continues to be a…read more

  • Modest usage Week 2

    Sproles played 28 of the Eagles' 81 snaps on offense during Sunday's 24-20 defeat in Atlanta.

    Analysis: Sproles ranked between Miles Sanders (35) but ahead of Jordan Howard (18) in such plays. However, Sproles fell far short of his teammates in yards from scrimmage, racking up just five (on two catches) while Sanders managed 37 and Howard accrued 26. Sproles' pass-catching prowess throughout his career is notable, but the 36-year-old is averaging a miserable 3.5 YPT on his six looks so far this season.

  • Paces team in rushing yards in win

    Sproles rushed nine times for 47 yards and caught all three of his targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 32-27 win over Washington.

    Analysis: Sproles' 63 total yards also led the Eagles backfield, although Miles Sanders got two more carries. While it is surprising that all three primary backs, including Jordan Howard, each saw three targets, the committee approach in Philadelphia is par for the course. While Sproles saw the second-highest snap count of the trio with 23, the distribution of snaps and touches will likely continue to vary from game to game, starting with a Week 2 matchup at Atlanta.

  • Passing-game role confirmed

    Sproles will be the primary punt returner and share passing-game duties for the Eagles, Mike Kaye of NJ.com reports.

    Analysis: This confirms what we thought already regarding Sproles' role. He will fill in on passing downs with Corey Clement and work behind Jordan Howard and Miles Sanders for the rest. This means the 36-year-old probably won't produce enough to be rostered outside of deep PPR leagues barring injury.

  • Does not play Thursday

    Sproles did not play in Thursday's preseason loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Sproles has not seen a snap in the preseason, and it will almost certainly stay that way as the team looks to keep the 36-year-old healthy for the games that matter. He'll fill his typical change-of-pace role alongside Jordan Howard and Miles Sanders. Corey Clement and either Wendell Smallwood or Josh Adams will likely fill out Philadelphia's running back depth chart.

  • Street clothes Thursday

    Sproles will not suit up for Thursday's preseason game against the Titans, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 36-year-old has established himself enough to earn a day off for the first preseason action of 2019. In his stead, it's likely youngsters Miles Sanders and Donnel Pumphrey get most of the run in the offense for Thursday's game.

  • Heading back to Philly

    The Eagles and Sproles agreed to a one-year contract Friday, Dave Spadaro of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: With less than a week remaining before the start of training camp, Philly welcomes back the 14-year veteran. Sproles has been limited to just nine appearances the past two seasons, the result of multiple lower-body injuries. Even if his body can't hold up to the rigors of regular work out of the backfield at age 36, his prowess as a punt returner should help him earn a role on the Eagles' 53-man roster. Such a gig may be his destiny anyway after the team brought in Jordan Howard and Miles…read more

  • Working out with Brees

    Sproles was recently spotted catching passes from Drew Brees in a workout, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

    Analysis: The pair was working with San Diego-based strength and conditioning coach Todd Durkin alongside other NFL players, including the Bears' Chase Daniel and Eagles' Donnel Pumphrey. While Sproles is clearly taking time with his decision on his future in football, his willingness to participate in workouts at least reflects some level of desire to keep his playing career going. New Orleans doesn't have much cap space, but a reunion with Brees isn't out of the picture given the team's underwhelming…read more

  • Not rushed on retirement call

    Sproles said he will wait until May to make a decision on retirement, The Press of Atlantic City's David Weinberg reports.

    Analysis: Coach Doug Pederson recently said he'd like to keep Sproles in Philadelphia for another season. While he hasn't explicitly said so, the 35-year-old running back seems to be deciding between the Eagles and retirement, rather than weighing offers from other teams. The trade for Jordan Howard provides some bulk in the Philadelphia backfield, but the team still lacks a reliable option for passing downs.

  • Still wanted in Philadelphia

    Eagles coach Doug Pederson said he hasn't talked to Sproles since the end of the season but would love to have the 35-year-old on the team in 2019, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

    Analysis: An unrestricted free agent, Sproles still hasn't announced his decision on retirement, and it isn't entirely clear he'd stay in Philadelphia if he were to continue his football career. The Eagles could certainly use a veteran presence in the backfield, as their current depth chart holds Corey Clement (knee), Wendell Smallwood, Josh Adams, Boston Scott and Donnel Pumphrey. The team is also maintaining dialogue with Jay Ajayi (knee) and likely will add a running back in the upcoming draft.

  • Pondering future

    Sproles said after Sunday's 20-14 loss to the Saints in the divisional round that he hasn't decided if he wants to play a 15th NFL season in 2019, Zach Berman of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. "I really don't know yet," Sproles said, when asked about his future in football. "I was going to take time away and then I was going to make my decision."

    Analysis: If this is the end for the 35-year-old Sproles, he concluded his career on a rather underwhelming note after starting and playing 27 of the Eagles' 51 offensive snaps against New Orleans and finishing with only four yards on three carries to go with three receptions for 21 yards. After an injury-shortened 2017 season, Sproles was motivated to return in 2018 so he could end his career on his own terms, but health still proved to be an issue. He suffered a hamstring injury in the season opener…read more

  • Leading rusher in playoff win

    Sproles rushed 13 times for 21 yards and caught two of three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 16-15 wild-card-round win over Chicago.

    Analysis: It's a testament to Sproles' ability that he led his team in carries and rushing yards in a playoff game at the advanced age of 35. The diminutive running back is already sixth on the NFL's all-time all-purpose-yardage list and could climb even higher if he chooses to suit up for another season. Sproles has already stated that a decision won't come on that front until training camp next season, but his focus lies elsewhere at the moment with the Eagles set to travel to New Orleans to face…read more

  • Gets nine touches in easy win

    Sproles had seven carries for 24 yards and caught two of three targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 24-0 win over Washington.

    Analysis: Sproles led the Philadelphia backfield with a 38 percent snap share, finishing slightly ahead of Wendell Smallwood (37 percent) and Josh Adams (25 percent), a duo that combined for 30 touches. The Eagles seem to have settled on a committee heading into the playoffs, with a road matchup against the Bears potentially favoring Sproles' role on passing downs. Of course, the Chicago defense has done excellent work defending running backs in the passing game, allowing just 6.6 yards per catch and 5.1…read more

  • Totals 108 yards in win

    Sproles rushed nine times for 32 yards and caught three of six targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-30 win over the Texans.

    Analysis: Sproles' man whiffed while attempting to tackle him in the flat, and the 35-year-old took it 37-yards to the house for a first-quarter touchdown. He also drew the start and led the team in rushing while seeing a season-high nine rushing attempts, more than he had in his last three games combined. Josh Adams, meanwhile, saw just 11 carries. Accordingly, none of the Eagles' backfield options make for reliable fantasy choices Week 17 at Washington.

  • Totals 46 yards in win

    Sproles rushed three times for 30 yards and caught three of four targets for 16 yards in Sunday night's 30-23 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Sproles was held out of the end zone for the first time since his return from injury but actually had his most impressive rushing performance in any of his four games this season. He hasn't carried the ball more than five times in those contests but picked up 17 and nine yards on his first two carries in this one, showing his customary burst and power. The 35-year-old saw 20 snaps for a second straight game but surprisingly didn't see more while Josh Adams was in and out of the game with a back…read more

  • Scores in second straight

    Sproles rushed once for two yards and caught all three of his targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-23 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Sproles caught a ball in the right flat and barreled through two defenders to get in the end zone and tie the game with 1:22 remaining in regulation. In just his second game back after missing 11 weeks with a hamstring injury, the 35-year-old saw 22 offensive snaps, more than twice what he got the week prior. With Corey Clement almost certain to miss time with what is likely a sprained knee, Sproles' role may expand even further Week 15 on the road against the Rams.

  • Finds end zone in return

    Sproles rushed four times for 22 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 28-13 victory over Washington.

    Analysis: Sproles scored his first touchdown in almost two full years despite seeing just nine offensive snaps in his first game action since injuring his hamstring Week 1. He also handled punt-return duties for Philadelphia, returning three kicks for 19 yards. Oddly, the 35-year-old was left out of the passing game, but Eagles probably wanted to ease the veteran back into action. Look for him to see his role gradually increase over the remainder of the season, starting with a Week 14 matchup in Dallas.

  • Playing for first time since Week 1

    Sproles (hamstring) is active for Monday's game versus the Redskins, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.

    Analysis: In his first appearance since Week 1, Sproles may not be featured like he was in that contest due to the emergence of Josh Adams (hip). Considering he's averaged 3.3 catches, 4.7 targets and 6.0 carries per game during the Doug Pederson era, Sproles should get in the act behind Adams and alongside Corey Clement.

  • Questionable for Monday

    Sproles (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Redskins.

    Analysis: Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reported earlier Saturday the veteran running back plans to play Monday, however Sproles is expected to be worked back into the offensive rotation slowly. An injury to Josh Adams may rush that timeline somewhat, but with the likes of Corey Clement and Wendell Smallwood still available and healthy, Sproles is unlikely to see a significant amount of snaps regardless of Adams' game-time status.

    Sproles (hamstring) is expected to be active for Monday's game against Washington, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Doug Pederson was optimistic about the health of his veteran running back, but seemed to hint the team plans to ease Sproles back into the lineup, specifically mentioning receiving an occasional punt return or third-down snap as a means of limiting his workload. Sproles' practice status Saturday will likely shed some light on how many snaps fantasy owners could anticipate for the 35-year-old, but it's unlikely he will cut dramatically into the workload of Josh Adams, who has…read more

    Analysis: Sproles returned to practice Thursday as a limited participant and repeated the feat Friday. Speaking after Friday's session, he told the media his absence was caused by something more than a simple hamstring injury, but then declined to provide any details. Regardless of the cause for his prolonged absence, the Eagles would be glad to get Sproles back in the lineup as a backfield option for passing downs.

    Analysis: During the portion of Thursday's practice open to the media, Sproles participated in individual drills, according to Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal. After the session, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reported Sproles didn't have any issues with his hamstring, unlike two weeks ago when he suffered a tweak. Sproles likely has to get through this week without a setback to have a chance to suit up Monday in Washington, which could be confirmed on Saturday's injury report. However, a…read more

    Coach Doug Pederson said Sproles (hamstring) will practice in limited fashion Thursday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Analysis: When Sproles returned to practice Nov. 8, he immediately suffered a setback that has kept him out for an additional three weeks. With that, the Eagles will likely be cautious with the veteran tailback Thursday, and his status for Monday's game against the Redskins remains up in the air.

    Analysis: Sproles returned to practice Nov. 8 and immediately suffered a setback, but the Eagles remain hopeful he can play at some point this season. His inability to practice in any capacity this week suggests he's unlikely to return for Week 13 against Washington.

    Analysis: Sproles will miss out on a chance to face one of his former teams after suffering a setback during Wednesday's practice. He'll likely miss time beyond Week 11, leaving Josh Adams, Wendell Smallwood and Corey Clement to form a backfield committee without a proven pass-catching threat.

  • Sidelined for another practice

    Sproles (hamstring) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Coach Doug Pederson said that Sproles would focus his efforts on rehabbing his lingering hamstring injury rather than practicing, so the veteran's non-participation in the first two sessions of the week doesn't come as a surprise. With Sproles trending toward missing his ninth consecutive game Sunday against the Saints, the Eagles will lean on a backfield trio of Wendell Smallwood, Josh Adams and Corey Clement.

  • Still rehabbing hamstring injury

    Coach Doug Pederson said that Sproles' main focus for this week will be continuing to train and rehab his hamstring injury, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Analysis: The Eagles aren't officially listing Sproles as out for Sunday's game against the Saints, but the fact that Pederson didn't offer any indication the running back is close to returning to practice suggests the 35-year-old's absence will be extended by at least another week. Sproles may need to demonstrate meaningful progress in his rehab over the next several days in order to avoid a move to injured reserve, which would spell an end to his season.

    Analysis: Sproles has been sidelined since Week 1 with the injury, but was expected to return to action Sunday against the Cowboys after opening the week as a practice participant. Unfortunately for the veteran scatback, he wasn't even able to make it through one full session before the hamstring acted up again. In light of his latest setback, the Eagles intend to take a cautious approach with Sproles, with one source telling Rapoport that the 35-year-old may need 3-to-4 weeks of recovery time.

    Sproles (hamstring) won't return for Sunday's game against Dallas, but coach Doug Pederson still expects the 35-year-old to play before the end of the season, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    Analysis: Sproles returned to practice Wednesday for the first time since Week 1, only to aggravate his hamstring injury and then sit out Thursday and Friday. Despite the optimism from Pederson, it's fair to wonder if Sproles really will make it back this season. The Eagles will continue to deploy a backfield committee consisting of Wendell Smallwood, Josh Adams and Corey Clement (illness).
