Darren Lee Sproles (born June 20, 1983) is an American football executive and former running back and return specialist who is currently a personnel executive for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League (NFL).
He played college football at Kansas State, where he is the all-time leading rusher, and was drafted by the San Diego Chargers in the fourth round of the 2005 NFL Draft.

Sproles was named as a kick returner on the Chargers 50th Anniversary Team. He joined the New Orleans Saints in free agency before the 2011 season, and broke the NFL record for most single-season all-purpose yardage the same year, with 2,696 yards. During that season he set career highs with 603 yards rushing (6.9 yards per carry) and 710 yards receiving and a combined total of 9 touchdowns. Sproles is the first player in NFL history with 2,200+ all purpose yards in 4 different seasons (2008-2011). Sproles is currently ranked 8th in career all-purpose yards in NFL history (18,318 yards).

In December 2016, Sproles announced that the 2017 season would be his final season.
