From the article

Mike Washington Jr. is pushing Ashton Jeanty for the lead running back role despite being drafted three rounds later. The rushing attack was better at staying on schedule with Washington last week, but his lack of vision also led to some missed opportunities for big runs, and the Jets were down their best run defender, defensive tackle T'Vondre Sweat. Moving forward, I think it will be closer to a 50-50 workload between the two backs.

Washington Jr. pushing Jeanty for lead role; expects 50-50 split going forward.

Mike Washington Jr. is pushing Ashton Jeanty for the lead running back role despite being drafted three rounds later. The source notes Washington had a decent performance last week that increased his workload, with the rushing attack staying better on schedule with him, though his lack of vision led to some missed opportunities for big runs. The Jets were also down their best run defender, T'Vondre Sweat, which should be factored into the evaluation. Moving forward, the source expects the workload to be closer to 50-50 between the two backs.
