Darren Sproles dodges five tackles on punt return touchdown (Video)
Philadelphia Eagles return man Darren Sproles sprinted his way to his sixth career punt return touchdown on Sunday in impressive fashion.
Sproles caught the New York Jets’ punt near the sideline at his own ten yard line, and it looked like the special teams would at least be able to keep him from picking up too much yardage on the return. Sproles had other ideas. With the aid of his blockers, he dodged five tackles over the course of his 89 yard return:

A play like this is just what Chip Kelly’s Eagles needed as they search for their first victory after a pair of lackluster performances to start the season.
