Dalton is expected to start in Week 11 even though many who follow the team seem to think the team would be much better off going with Gilbert, who kept the Cowboys in the game against the Steelers in Week 9.

Eagles RB does not carry an injury designation ahead of Week 10's game against the New York Giants, according to Zach Berman of The Athletic.

Sanders enters RB1 territory immediately. Get him back in your lineups.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders talked to reporters Friday. "I feel good," said Sanders. "I feel normal. I'm ready to get back and stack these wins up."

Lock in Sanders for Sunday's game against the Giants. He is in the RB1 conversation as long as he is healthy.

Eagles starting running back Miles Sanders returned to practice on Wednesday.

This was expected after reports over the weekend but it is still good to see Sanders back practicing with his teammates. Sanders should resume his bellcow role in Week 10 when the Eagles face the Giants in a divisional matchup. Boston Scott showed some juice in Sanders's absence and will likely retain a change-of-pace role behind the healthy Sanders.

The Cowboys wasted no time double stamping Andy Dalton as QB1 coming out of their Week 10 bye, with both owner Jerry Jones and VP of Player Personnel Stephen Jones taking to the airwaves to rub Dalton's back, after the veteran missed two consecutive weeks with injury.

First, when asked who'll be starter when the Cowboys take on the Minnesota Vikings, the elder Jones pounded the proverbial table.

"Andy is," he told 105.3FM the Fan on Tuesday. "When we signed Andy, I really thought we had arguably the best backup quarterback that I've ever been associated with, and we've had some good ones with Jason Garrett and I don't want to go over guys like that -- Bernie Kosar -- which are names that are from the past. But still, to have Andy Dalton as your backup quarterback when in fact Andy is, in my mind, a very legitimate starter."

The story said sources told CBS to not rule out the possibility of Gilbert as starter in Week 11 against the Minnesota Vikings for a variety of reasons, despite team comments. The story also said they may be leaning Dalton because the team signed him this offseason to a one-year deal that included a $2 million signing bonus and $3 million in total guarantees.
