Yahoo Sports NFL on Ashton Jeanty

Jeanty's rushing profile ranks poorly across all efficiency metrics despite heavy workload.

Jeanty is seeing loads of work but isn't living up to the hype; he ranks 26th in YAC per carry, 35th in explosive run rate, 48th in missed tackles forced per attempt, and 29th in RYOE per attempt. There is not a single thing in his rushing profile this year that suggests he is an above-average back, despite his elite college profile as a potential NFL workhorse. Buying Jeanty is an unnecessary risk for teams on the positive side of .500, though he could be a league-winner gamble for teams needing a spark.
