Fantasy Life Articles on Ashton Jeanty
From the article
I still question how healthy he is... Jeanty carried the ball just 10 times for 22 yards... he logged only 57% of the snaps and 47% of the rush attempts, well below his season marks of 69% and 67%, respectively... The Raiders continued to mix in Mike Washington, who has simply looked better than Jeanty between the tackles all year long... Jeanty: 3.2 YPC, 0.56 YBC/ATT... Washington: 4.9 YPC, 1.56 YBC/ATT... What's stabilizing Jeanty's place among the high-end RB2 options is his consistent pass-game usage. Jeanty's 17% target share ranks fourth among all running backs, while only Kyren Williams and Jahmyr Gibbs are averaging more targets per game (5.8).
STACKED’s take
Jeanty's health questioned despite playing; 57% snaps, 3.2 YPC vs. Washington's 4.9 YPC.
Despite Raiders HC Klint Kubiak stating Jeanty was feeling better and would play against Buffalo in Week 6, the source questions his full health. Jeanty carried just 10 times for 22 yards (2.2 YPC) and logged only 57% of snaps and 47% of rush attempts—well below his season marks of 69% and 67%, respectively. His 0.56 yards before contact per attempt and 3.2 YPC are significantly worse than Mike Washington's 1.56 YBC/ATT and 4.9 YPC. The Raiders increasingly turned to Washington in the second half (six touches to Jeanty's two). What stabilizes Jeanty's value is his consistent pass-game usage: 17% target share (fourth among all RBs) and 5.8 targets per game (only behind Kyren Williams and Jahmyr Gibbs). The source suggests Jeanty's offensive line run-blocking hasn't improved as hoped and questions whether he is the legendary prospect originally projected.
