Despite the Dallas Cowboys signing him this offseason, the team could trade former Carolina Panther Miles Sanders before the 2025 regular season.<\/p>\n

According to a report, one source believes the Cowboys will trade Sanders to allow\u00a02025 draft pick Jaydon Blue\u00a0to get more opportunities in the backfield.<\/p>\n

While that could be true that between Javonte Williams and Sanders, Blue won\u2019t see a lot of potential touches, it doesn\u2019t necessarily mean his time won\u2019t be coming.<\/p>\n

The Cowboys are still dissecting which running back is capable of being the full-time starter for this squad ever since they let\u00a0Tony Pollard\u00a0test free agency last offseason.<\/p>\n

win the starting duties, but the Cowboys won\u2019t allow the idea of releasing Sanders so early before the preseason.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not ideal for a team that just signed the veteran months ago, but it doesn\u2019t mean it won\u2019t happen at all.<\/p>\n

Originally selected in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft, the former Penn State product became a valuable runner for the Philadelphia Eagles before losing his footing during his last season with them.<\/p>\n

Sanders was hoping for more touches, and the Carolina Panthers brought him in to try to reignite his career, which hasn\u2019t been happening like they were hoping.<\/p>\n

Sanders might not be the greatest free agent if he becomes one again, but these four teams could take a chance on him for a backup role at least.<\/p>\n

Possible Destinations<\/h3>\n

Kansas City Chiefs<\/h4>\n

Isiah Pacheco became one of the most promising long-term running backs for Kansas City to\u00a0fighting for a roster spot next year.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s on the hot seat, and with\u00a0veteran Kareem Hunt, the Chiefs\u2019 backfield unit is getting weaker slowly as time goes on.<\/p>\n

Despite signing Elijah Mitchell, the Chiefs could trade Sanders as the latest veteran to hold down backup duties, at least if Hunt departs in 2026.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles Chargers<\/h4>\n

Jim Harbaugh\u00a0wants to run the football, so why not add another running back to test the waters? Between 2025 draft pick Omarion Hampton and\u00a0veteran Najee Harris, Sanders could find his role in this system in a situational role. He won\u2019t carry most of the snaps, but could be a reliable force to come in in certain moments.<\/p>\n

New Orleans Saints<\/h4>\n

Meanwhile, the New Orleans Saints have one of the weakest running back rooms, other than Alvin Kamara.<\/p>\n

Despite signing Cam Akers, they can\u2019t lean on him or draft bust Kendre Miller to take over if Kamara truly requests a trade if the Saints endure another losing season.<\/p>\n

Sanders isn\u2019t a starter in the league anymore, but it would give the team a fighting chance in the backfield department.<\/p>\n

Chicago Bears<\/h4>\n

The Chicago Bears missed out on 2025 draft pick Ashton Jeanty in the first round, but it doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s quite over for the team to salvage the unit.<\/p>\n

D\u2019Andre Swift could be on the trade block\u00a0before the 2025 campaign starts, and if that happens, they might be in the market for at least a rotational running back.<\/p>\n

Sanders won\u2019t put up over 1,000 rushing yards, but could be some kind of support for second-year\u00a0Caleb Williams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
