He doesn't look healthy. This isn't the Jeanty we watched dominate at Boise State. Right now, he looks like a running back who's banged up, struggling to create explosive plays.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Jeanty looks unhealthy on film; 3.3 YPA and injury concerns despite heavy usage.

The source is moving Jeanty into Total Panic primarily because he doesn't look healthy on film. Despite maintaining 88 carries for 291 yards and 22 receptions for 215 yards, Jeanty is averaging just 3.3 yards per carry with no rushing touchdowns. The source observes that he's struggling to create explosive plays and make defenders miss—not the dominant version from Boise State or his rookie season. Additionally, there have been dropped passes and missed opportunities, and legitimate injury concerns have emerged. The source questions whether continuing to play through injuries is helping anyone and whether the Raiders might eventually give Jeanty time off to heal.
