Raheim Sanders, 23, was a three-sport athlete at Rockledge High, playing football, basketball and track.<\/p>\n
He then played his first three years of college football at Arkansas, with injuries hampering his junior season.<\/p>\n
He transferred to South Carolina for his fourth and final year, where he had 881 yards rushing and a career-high 11 touchdowns, while also hauling in 27 receptions for 316 yards and two touchdowns.<\/p>\n
He is listed at third on the depth chart behind starter Jerome Ford and backup Dylan Sampson.<\/p>\n
All three saw action Sunday, with Sampson leading the way with 29 yards on 12 carries and Ford collecting 8 yards on 6 carries.<\/p>\n
