Drafted in the second round in 2019, Sanders impressed during training camp and won the starting job over a running-back-by-committee approach that included Josh Adams, Wendell Smallwood, Corey Clement, Jay Ajayi, and Darren Sproles. Teammate Brandon Graham praised him saying "That boy a beast, man. You're going to see. Oooooh, I like him." Sanders validated the hype by leading all NFL rookies with 1,327 scrimmage yards, setting an Eagles rookie record.

The Raiders held a workout with the 2022 Pro Bowl RB on Monday, one day before veterans report to training camp. Sanders, 29, was originally a second-round pick by Philadelphia in 2019 and earned his Pro Bowl bid by rushing for 1,269 yards (4.9 ypc) and 11 touchdowns in his final Eagles season. However, his production has declined every season since. After signing a four-year, $25.4 million deal with Carolina in 2023, he battled injuries and was released with two years remaining, posting just 939 yards from scrimmage and four touchdowns in 27 games (seven starts). Last season with Dallas on a veteran minimum deal, he suffered a knee bruise and ankle sprain in training camp before undergoing chondral tissue graft surgery on his left knee and being placed on season-ending injured reserve; he played in just four games with 147 yards from scrimmage and 1 touchdown. The Raiders could use depth behind Ashton Jeanty, and Sanders offers 183 career catches for 1,274 yards and four touchdowns as a pass-catcher out of the backfield.

Sanders, 29, is a free agent fully cleared from knee injury requiring surgery that ended his 2025 season with Dallas. The Raiders could use depth behind Ashton Jeanty; the position group is young with only Jeanty having double-digit rushing attempts. Sanders offers pass-catching value with 183 career catches for 1,274 yards and four touchdowns, addressing the team's need for a reliable pass-catcher out of the backfield.
