The star Eagles running back suffered a broken arm and torn ACL on September 24th against the Giants, ending his season. He is eligible for free-agency after the season.

In 2016, Sproles became the first player in NFL history with 30-plus receiving touchdowns, 20-plus rushing touchdowns (21), a punt return for a touchdown, (7) and a kick return for a touchdown (2).
