Panthers' Miles Sanders: Rough outing in win
Miles Sanders rushed twice for minus-5 yards in Sunday's 23-22 win over the Saints. He also caught both of his targets for minus-5 yards.Sanders was highly inefficient in the Carolina Panthers' second win of the season Sunday, losing yardage on three of his four touches. He appeared to be one of Bryce Young's favorite targets after posting a team-high seven catches in Week 8's loss to the Broncos; however, he was targeted just twice in Week 9. Expect Sanders to continue seeing little offensive work in Week 10's matchup against the Giants, especially with 2024 second-round pick Jonathon Brooks (knee) potentially making his NFL debut.

Panthers' Miles Sanders: Career high in catches Sunday
Miles Sanders gained seven yards on his lone carry but caught all seven of his targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Broncos.With Bryce Young back under center for the Carolina Panthers, Sanders wound up leading the team in receptions as he became the top check-down option for the second-year QB. The seven grabs were a career high for the sixth-year RB, but he came into Sunday with only 12 catches on 17 targets over the prior seven games. The performance still could be a preview of Sanders' role in the second half of 2024 if Young remains the starting quarterback, especially if Chuba Hubbard gets traded to make room for rookie Jonathon Brooks (knee) as Carolina's early-down back.

Panthers' Miles Sanders: Heavily involved Sunday
Miles Sanders rushed once for seven yards in Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Broncos. He also caught all seven of his targets for 38 yards.The 27-year-old running back greatly benefitted from Bryce Young serving as the Carolina Panthers' top signal-caller in Week 8, as Sanders saw increased opportunities through the air. He led Carolina in receptions and tied rookie Xavier Legette for the most targets. While Sanders' increased usage Sunday is intriguing, his role is expected to dwindle in the coming weeks with 2024 second-round pick Jonathon Brooks (knee) returning from injury.

Panthers' Miles Sanders: Efficient in Week 7
Miles Sanders rushed three times for 34 yards in Sunday's 40-7 loss to the Commanders. He also caught one of his two targets for minus-6 yards.Sanders tallied an extremely efficient 11.3 yards per carry in Sunday's loss. However, he touched the ball just four times for the third consecutive week, as Chuba Hubbard remains the Carolina Panthers' top running back. Jonathon Brooks (knee) returned to practice this week and is expected to suit up in the coming weeks. Once Brooks makes his NFL debut, Sanders will likely be the odd man out in Carolina's backfield.

Panthers' Miles Sanders: Sees limited work again in Week 6
Miles Sanders took three carries for one yard and caught one pass for 12 yards in Sunday's 38-20 loss to the Falcons.The second-year Panther was an afterthought once again in Carolina's Week 6 loss, as Chuba Hubbard posted another efficient near-100 yard rushing performance. Sanders has now seen just eight total touches across the Carolina Panthers' last two games, and his workload will likely continue to decrease with Jonathon Brooks (knee) expected to return to practice next week.

Panthers' Miles Sanders: Just four touches vs. Bears
Miles Sanders rushed two times for six yards in Sunday's 36-10 loss to the Bears. He also caught two of his three targets for 27 yards.Sanders didn't benefit from the Carolina Panthers playing from behind for most of Sunday's contest, as Carolina was trailing 27-7 in the first half. With Chuba Hubbard tallying another efficient, near-100-yard rushing performance (97 yards on 13 carries), and 2024 second-round pick Jonathon Brooks (knee) expected to return from injury in the coming weeks, Sanders' role in the Panthers' backfield will likely continue to diminish.

Panthers' Miles Sanders: No injury designation
Miles Sanders (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Chicago, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.Sanders returned to full practice participation Friday after sitting out Thursday. He's had the same role each week this season, getting 5-to-7 carries and 2-to-4 targets on 31-42 percent snap share. Sanders figures to handle similar workloads until Jonathon Brooks (knee) is ready to return from the reserve/non-football injury list, which still may be a few weeks out given that the Carolina Panthers didn't open the rookie's practice window this week.

Panthers' Miles Sanders: Misses Thursday's practice
Miles Sanders didn't practice Thursday due to an illness, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.Sanders wasn't listed on the Carolina Panthers' initial Week 5 injury report released Wednesday, so the illness is likely something that he picked up overnight. The running back's participation in Friday's session will likely provide a clearer indication of his potential availability for Sunday's game against the Bears. If Sanders cannot overcome his illness in time for Sunday, expect Raheem Blackshear and Mike Boone to serve as the Panthers' top reserve running backs.
