Navy’s versatile, chip-on-his-shoulder back with real receiving juice
Sanders stood out at Navy as a back who could hurt defenses both on the ground and in the passing game; in the 2013 season he totaled 223 receiving yards, and across his Navy career he produced 884 rushing yards, 540 receiving yards, and 7 total touchdowns. He was described by Navy as one of the team’s best receiving threats out of the backfield, a tenacious blocker, and a player who “plays with a chip on his shoulder,” which hints at a tough, reliable fit for a physical system that values versatility and attitude.
