From the article

The Raiders improved their offensive line this offseason, signing Tyler Linderbaum to a record-setting contract, adding guard Spencer Burford and getting left tackle Kolton Miller back from injury. The offensive line upgrades should immediately aid Jeanty, and playing in Klint Kubiak's scheme should put the back in advantageous positions to create explosive plays.

Positive signalProjection

Jeanty's YPC should rise with Raiders' upgraded O-line and Kubiak's scheme.

Jeanty's 3.7 yards per carry in 2025 should improve significantly in 2026 after the Raiders upgraded their offensive line by signing center Tyler Linderbaum to a record contract, adding guard Spencer Burford, and getting left tackle Kolton Miller back from injury. The source expects a big improvement on the explosive play front, noting Jeanty had just three runs of 20-plus yards and two over 40 yards last season despite shining in that area in college, and projects he'd likely smash past those numbers early in the season under Klint Kubiak's scheme.
