Miles Sanders Takes Shot At Former Team After Joining Cowboys

The Washington Commanders are doing some serious legwork as they eye talent to bolster their ranks. At Miami’s pro day, standout defensive end Tyler Baron had an in-depth discussion with the team’s representatives.

Meanwhile, Connecticut’s offensive lineman Chase Lundt also caught their attention during his pro day. And it doesn’t stop there – Louisville’s cornerback Quincy Riley is slated for an official visit with the Commanders, signaling their intent to thoroughly assess potential additions to their squad.

Over in Dallas, there’s a familiar face looking for redemption. Former Panthers running back Miles Sanders is turning over a new leaf with the Cowboys. Reflecting on his past two seasons with the Panthers as a challenging chapter, Sanders is eager for a fresh start where he can truly showcase his skills.

“These last two years have been a lesson in controlling what I can control,” Sanders shared through the team website. His transition to the Cowboys sounds promising, with quarterback Dak Prescott reaching out to welcome him into the fold.

Sanders described the exchange as genuine, focusing more on building relationships and looking toward the future rather than dwelling on the past. With OC Klayton Adams at the helm – himself a former offensive line coach – Sanders is optimistic about the run-focused offensive strategy and is keen to bring his best game to Dallas.

And who else should pop up in the Cowboys’ conversation but fellow Nittany Lion Micah Parsons? Sanders gave a nod to Parsons’ unique talents and relentless work ethic, emphasizing the respect he holds for his teammate.

The Cowboys are also on the lookout for fresh talent as they prepare to welcome Texas defensive tackle Alfred Collins for an official visit. Additionally, the team had an in-person meeting with Texas offensive lineman Hayden Conner, demonstrating their active interest in reinforcing their lines. Texas safety Andrew Mukuba is next in line for an official visit, highlighting the team’s comprehensive scouting efforts.

Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Eagles are in the mix of recruitment with official visits from several promising prospects. Purdue’s offensive lineman Marcus Mbow and Iowa State’s lineman Jalen Travis have both been on the Eagles’ radar during their official 30 visits.

Oregon’s offensive tackle Josh Conerly, a highly sought-after player, has lined up visits with seven teams, including Philly. The Eagles are doubling up on interest with SMU’s defensive lineman Elijah Roberts, who is also set to visit the Steelers.

And rounding things out, William & Mary O-line standout Charles Grant and Miami DE Tyler Baron have penciled in their own visits with the Eagles.

It’s a bustling time for NFL teams as they fine-tune their rosters and future plans, aiming to make strategic moves that could pay dividends on the field. With a parade of talented players making their rounds this offseason, the excitement builds as expectations rise for what new blood can bring to these storied franchises.
