Southern California running back Eli Sanders declared for the 2026 NFL Draft on Thursday.
“This is just the beginning of the next chapter, and I can’t wait to see where it goes from here,” he posted on X.
He rushed for 264 yards and two touchdowns in six games for the Trojans this season before sustaining a season-ending knee injury in a 31-13 win against Michigan on Oct. 11.
It was the redshirt senior’s first season at USC following one season at New Mexico (2024) and three at Iowa State (2021-23).
Sanders rushed for 2,030 yards and 15 touchdowns and caught 38 passes for 395 yards and two scores in 39 career games.
