Report: Miles Sanders avoids major injury in Germany

Panthers running back Miles Sanders was carted off the field during the team’s win over the Giants in Munich last Sunday, but it doesn’t look like he will miss any length of time.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Sanders had extensive tests done on the foot and ankle and that he visited a specialist to determine the severity of the injury. This led to the opinion that Sanders avoided a major injury and is considered day-to-day.

The Panthers have a bye, so next week will be the next chance to check on Sanders’ status.

Sanders has 38 carries for 139 yards and a touchdown to go with 21 catches for 98 yards while working behind Chuba Hubbard this season.
