Eagles' Sanders won't return vs. Giants due to ankle injury

The Philadelphia Eagles will be attempting to secure a playoff spot without their star rookie.

Running back Miles Sanders was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the New York Giants with an ankle injury. Without Sanders, Boston Scott will lead the team's backfield.

Sanders entered Week 17 with 766 rushing yards, 510 receiving yards, and six total touchdowns.

Philadelphia's offense also suffered a second significant loss. Pro Bowl guard Brandon Brooks was carted off the field with a shoulder injury and won't return.
