Jeanty played 57% of the snaps last week and split carries evenly with Mike Washington, with 9 apiece. He's down from playing 73% to 83% of the snaps in each of the first three games. Las Vegas has a D in my run-blocking grades against a Rams defense with an A. Jeanty is getting just 0.60 yards before contact per carry (32nd among 39 qualified backs). He's been stuffed at or behind the line on 25.3% of his carries, the highest rate among those backs. The blocking deserves plenty of blame, though Jeanty also ranks 34th in missed tackles forced per carry. I have him as an RB2 this week with the reduced role. He's still a starter in most lineups, but this is a brutal matchup.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Jeanty's reduced role and Rams' elite run defense create brutal matchup.

Jeanty is an RB2 this week with a reduced role against the Rams, but this is a brutal matchup. He played 57% of snaps last week and split carries evenly with Mike Washington (9 apiece), down from 73-83% snap share in first three games. Las Vegas has a D in run-blocking grades against Rams' A-grade defense. Jeanty gets just 0.60 yards before contact per carry (32nd among 39 qualified backs) and has been stuffed at or behind the line on 25.3% of carries (highest rate among qualified backs). He ranks 34th in missed tackles forced per carry. Playing the Jets next week can't get here soon enough.
