Ashton Jeanty Injury News & Updates

Jeanty rushed six times for seven yards while adding six receptions on eight targets for 27 yards in Monday's 33-16 loss to Dallas.

Las Vegas abandoned the run early in Monday's lopsided loss, resulting in Jeanty's worst rushing totals in 10 starts as a pro. The Raiders ran the ball just 12 times out of 59 plays on offense, and the imbalanced playcalling prevented the team's prized rookie from gaining any momentum. The six receptions served as the only silver lining for those participating in PPR formats, and they also represented a new single-game high for Jeanty. The route to a bounce-back performance in Week 12 will be steep, as Jeanty will have to find room to run behind a porous offensive line while facing Cleveland's dominant defensive front on Sunday.

Jeanty rushed 19 times for 60 yards and a touchdown and secured three of five targets for three yards in the Raiders' 10-7 loss to the Broncos on Thursday night.

Jeanty was essentially the lone bright spot for the Raiders' offense, and he put the team's only touchdown of the night on the board with a four-yard run late in the first quarter. Jeanty generally found tough sledding on the ground against a talented Broncos defense, and in Las Vegas' first game without the traded Jakobi Meyers, the rookie first-round pick logged his second straight five-target tally. Jeanty draws a much more palatable matchup next time out, as the Raiders welcome in a beatable Cowboys defense on Monday night, Nov. 17.

Jeanty took 13 carries for 42 yards while corralling all five of his targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-29 overtime loss to Jacksonville.

Jeanty used the Raiders' bye week to rebound nicely from his worst game as a pro against Kansas City in Week 7, nabbing his third touchdown reception of the year in Sunday's narrow defeat. The Boise State product still finished with a per-carry average below four yards for the third consecutive contest running behind Las Vegas' shoddy offensive line, but his contributions as a receiver balanced out a nice fantasy score in the end. Jeanty will have to work for another strong outing in Week 10 against Denver's top-10 rush defense on Thursday Night Football.

Jeanty rushed the ball six times for 21 yards in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs. He added one reception on one target for 13 yards.

The Raiders had arguably the worst offensive showing by a team this season, running only 30 offensive plays for 95 net yards. That didn't offer Jeanty any opportunity to get going, though he did still account for one of the team's more explosive plays with a 13-yard catch and run late in the third quarter. It was a disappointing time for Jeanty to turn in the lowest yardage total of his career, as he had topped 100 yards from scrimmage in two of his last three contests.

Jeanty rushed 23 times for 75 yards and a touchdown while bringing in two of four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 20-10 victory over the Titans.

Jeanty ground out a solid fantasy day by scoring his third rushing touchdown of the year on a season-high 23 carries. Veteran backup Raheem Mostert (five carries) was the only other rusher to record a touch in the win, highlighting Jeanty's stranglehold on the every-down role out of Las Vegas' backfield. The sixth overall pick from this year's draft has generated 497 combined yards from scrimmage with five total touchdowns through six starts in 2025. Jeanty's offensive involvement has increased with an average of 22.3 touches over the Raiders' last three contests. Fantasy managers can start the Boise State product with confidence for next Sunday's road tilt against the Chiefs.

Jeanty rushed 14 times for 67 yards and brought in five of seven targets for 42 yards in the Raiders' 40-6 loss to the Colts on Sunday.

Jeanty ultimately saw his rushing workload somewhat curtailed due to the game getting completely away from the Raiders, but the talented back was impressive again with the opportunities he did see. Those helped net new single-game career highs in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the rookie first-round pick, who corroborated the value of keeping him involved in the game even when Las Vegas is on the wrong end of a lopsided score. Jeanty will remain a highly appealing option in all formats in an enticing Week 6 home matchup against the Titans next Sunday afternoon.

Jeanty took 21 carries for 138 yards and a touchdown (one fumble lost) while catching both of his targets for 17 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Sunday's 25-24 loss to Chicago.

Jeanty's early fumble fortunately did not earn him a benching -- which coaching staffs have been known to do when young runners fumble -- as he went on to produce three trips to the end zone Sunday. It was a welcomed sight from the sixth-overall pick in this year's draft, who failed to average over four yards per carry in any of his three previous outings. With a signature performance under his belt, Jeanty's managers can now start him with confidence heading into next Sunday's tilt against Indianapolis.

Jeanty carried the ball 17 times for 63 yards in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Commanders.

The rookie running back failed to see a target for the first time in his brief career, but Jeanty did little with his six targets in his first two games, so it was little surprise to see his role as a pass-catcher reduced. The 63 rushing yards did represent his best effort so far on the ground, but it was still far from a breakout performance for the sixth overall pick in the 2025 Draft. Jeanty stands a better chance of making an impact in Week 4 against a Bears defense that has been one of the worst units in the NFL to begin the year.

Coach Pete Carroll expects Jeanty's workload to increase in the coming weeks, Ryan McFadden of ESPN reports.

In the Raiders' 20-13 season-opening win over the Patriots, Jeanty logged 54 of a possible 63 snaps on offense, with 19 carries for 38 yards and a TD, while adding two catches for two yards. Then, in this past Monday's 20-9 loss to the Chargers, the No. 6 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft was on the field for 39 of 70 snaps on offense, en route to carrying 11 times for 43 yards and catching three of his four targets for one yard. While game flow impacted Jeanty's usage in Week 2 (per offensive coordinator Chip Kelly) and inconsistent run blocking has been an issue early on, McFadden relays that Carroll wants Jeanty to play eight to nine more snaps per game, with the idea of getting the promising running back around 20 carries in the coming weeks. Such an outcome would no doubt please those who roster Jeanty, with his workload in Week 3 -- both in terms of snaps and touches -- of particular interest, based on his head coach's comments. In any case, backups Zamir White, Dylan Laube and Raheem Mostert aren't th

Jeanty took 11 carries for 43 yards and caught three of four targets for one yard in Monday's 20-9 loss to the Chargers.

The Raiders continued deploying Jeanty as the team's bellcow out of the backfield, handing the rookie 11 of the 13 carries dispersed to running backs Monday. The sixth-overall pick from this year's draft failed to repeat last week's trip to the end zone, resulting in a middling fantasy score in his second pro appearance. Jeanty's monster share of backfield touches combined with the upside that made him such a high draft choice keep his fantasy ceiling raised as the season rolls along. The Boise State product's next opportunity to break out will come in a road matchup against the Commanders on Sunday.

Jeanty rushed 19 times for 38 yards and a touchdown and brought in both targets for two yards in the Raiders' 20-13 win over the Patriots on Sunday.

Jeanty was repeatedly flummoxed by a game Patriots front, although he was able to record his first regular-season career touchdown on a tough three-yard run in the third quarter. Jeanty did receive ample opportunity on the ground and outpaced the only other Raiders running back to log a carry, Zamir White, by three rush attempts. Despite some summertime talk from head coach Pete Carroll that all of his backs would be involved to varying degree, Jeanty unsurprisingly heads into a Week 2 Monday night home matchup against the Chargers on Sept. 15 as the clear leader of the ground attack.

Jeanty rushed twice for five yards in the Raiders' 20-10 preseason loss to the Cardinals on Saturday night.

Jeanty logged the Raiders' first touch from scrimmage and shared time with Zamir White on the drive. The rookie first-round pick had a relatively quiet first preseason as a pro, rushing 12 times for 37 yards and a touchdown recording one catch for two yards over three games. That type sparse usage should be a distant memory as soon as the regular season begins, as Jeanty is expected to handle a robust role in the Raiders' ground attack beginning with a Week 1 road matchup against the Patriots on Sunday, Sept. 7.

Jeanty rushed seven times for 33 yards and a touchdown and added one catch on one target for two yards in Saturday's exhibition loss to San Francisco.

Jeanty tallied minus-1 yard on three carries in his preseason NFL debut against the Seahawks on Aug. 7, but he looked significantly better against the 49ers. The rookie out of Boise State ripped off a team-high 13-yard run on his fifth carry and finished that same drive with a one-yard push into the end zone. Overall, Jeanty averaged 4.7 yards per rush attempt, showcasing the promise the Raiders saw when they drafted him sixth overall in April's NFL Draft. He's set to lead Las Vegas' running back corps out of the gate and is consistently being taken late in the first round of fantasy drafts.

Jeanty rushed three times for minus-1 yard and wasn't targeted in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie against the Seahawks.

Jeanty produced a forgettable stat line in his highly anticipated Raiders debut. His first carry went for three yards on the opening drive, and Jeanty stayed in for the start of the second drive even as Geno Smith gave way to backup Aidan O'Connell under center. Poor blocking contributed to Jeanty being stuffed on his next two carries for a combined minus-4 yards. Jeanty's prolific production at Boise State led to him being drafted sixth overall, but the talented rookie could be held back to some extent by poor offensive line play on a Vegas team that went 4-13 last season, even if Jeanty works in a three-down role out of the gate. He'll look to pick up the pace Aug. 16 against the 49ers in the Raiders' second preseason game.

The Raiders selected Jeanty in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, sixth overall.

There was plenty of speculation earlier Thursday that Jeanty would be the fifth pick, but a shakeup at the top of the board changed the course of the draft and allowed the Raiders an opportunity to swoop in and immediately change their backfield. Jeanty put up video game-like numbers during his three seasons at Boise State with 4,769 yards and 50 rushing touchdowns to go with 80 catches for 862 yards and six touchdowns on 100 targets. He ran for a whopping 2,601 yards and 29 touchdowns on 374 carries in his final season. To average 7.0 yards per carry when defenses spent the entire week gameplanning how to slow him down shows just how special of a running back Jeanty is. He didn't test at the NFL Combine, but the production and a look at the film suggest that he's an above-average athlete for an NFL running back. The fit couldn't be much better for Jeanty's workload projection, as the Raiders were dead-last in the NFL in rushing yards (1,357) and YPC (3.6) last season. Playing for a coach like Pete Carroll wi
