Sanders is cited as the Cowboys' RB in the Week 1 taunting moment. His involvement shapes Week 2 game plans since the Eagles' penalties and the early-season depth chart interplay affect the Cowboys' offensive targets and overall game flow.

Sanders contributed as a backup RB with a notable 49-yard run in the opener, and the staff praised a downfield block by Steele. His presence provides a veteran spark and gear-shift credibility to the Cowboys' backfield, even as the main workload remains a work in progress with Williams and Booker developing.

Sanders flashed big-play potential with a 49-yard gain but followed with a momentum-dampening fumble, prompting questions about his top-end speed and finish. In a Cowboys backfield that’s already juggling Williams, Sanders, and potential Walker additions, Sanders’ fantasy value will hinge on touches and pass-game involvement.

Sanders was in line for a go-ahead moment before Baun’s chase. He then saw a late fumble that swung the game Philly’s way, highlighting the fine margins between big plays and costly mistakes for a Cowboys back in a defensive chess match.

Sanders contributed modest yardage in his Cowboys debut, underscoring that Dallas’ offense still relies on a multifaceted attack. His role in the running back committee could be a weekly swing factor for fantasy, depending on goal-line opportunities and opponent matchup.
