Miles Sanders' Eagles contract: How much salary does the RB earn at Philadelphia?

Miles Sanders is enjoying a spectacular season with the Philadelphia Eagles. The running back will be entering free agency in the offseason, but it seems inevitable that the Eagles may extend his deal.

Sanders was picked by Philadelphia in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft. He signed a four-year contract worth $5,350,175. The Penn State graduate received a $1,911,036 signing bonus with $2,649,226 in guaranteed money, and an average annual salary of $1,337,544.

It's safe to say that Sanders is proving his worth with the Eagles this season. However, the NFC giants will need to decide whether they can afford to keep him on their payroll.

Sanders is bound to garner plenty of interest from suitors in the offseason. However, since he is one of Nick Sirianni's most important assets, the Eagles will need to work on a deal that will keep him in Philadelphia for a long period of time.
