Who Should I Start? Nyheim Hines or Miles Sanders

Thursday, October 24, 12:08 PM

Cleveland Browns running back Nyheim Hines (knee) was not officially activated from Non-Football Injury list within his 21-day practice window, meaning he will miss the remainder of the 2024 season. Hines will end up missing the entire season in Cleveland after tearing his ACL in a jet-ski accident in July of 2023. With Nick Chubb returning from his own devastating knee injury last week, there just wasn't room for the 27-year-old pass-catching specialist on the Browns' active 53-man roster heading into a Week 8 contest against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens. Jerome Ford (hamstring) missed the Week 7 loss to the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals, but the Browns also have D'Onta Foreman and Pierre Strong Jr. as depth at the position behind Chubb.

The Carolina Panthers have placed running back Miles Sanders (ankle) on injured reserve. The veteran playmaker suffered a significant ankle injury during Week 10 in Germany. He had already been ruled out for Week 12, and now his placement on IR will hold him out for a minimum of four games. Sanders has appeared in 10 games this season, totaling 139 rushing yards, 98 receiving yards, and one touchdown in a backup role behind Chuba Hubbard. Carolina will proceed with Hubbard in the lead-back role and Jonathon Brooks (knee) slated to make his NFL debut as the No. 2 option out of the backfield.
