The NFL’s new league year is fast approaching, and one major domino will center around Miles Sanders, and how much the running back can land on the open market.
Sanders made his first Pro Bowl, amassed 1,200+ rushing yards and 10+ touchdowns this season, and will look to land among the top-paid players at his position.
Sanders’ total guarantees and ability to potentially help reset the market to a hit recently when a reworked contract ensured running back Aaron Jones will return to the Green Bay Packers during the 2023 season.
Jones and the Packers agreed to a restructured deal that includes a $5 million pay cut and a conversion of his roster bonus into a signing bonus.
What does the new deal mean for Jones, the Packers, and more importantly, Miles Sanders going forward?
