Miles Sanders sets rookie all-purpose yards record for Philadelphia Eagles

Somewhere, former Philadelphia Eagles head coach Rex Ryan is turning over in his grave. No one hated giving an inch on defense more than he did.

In 2019, many of the Eagles offensive yards have come thanks to the efforts of their electrifying rookie, Miles Sanders.

In Week 15. Sanders set the Eagles’ all-time record for all-purpose yards by a rookie.
