Jeanty's ankle injury appears less severe; Raiders counting on his availability.

Jeanty suffered an ankle injury on August 23 during practice after diving for a low pass and landing awkwardly, raising initial concern. However, the Raiders did not place him on injured reserve with a designated-to-return qualifier during cutdown day, suggesting he avoided a serious injury. Head coach Klint Kubiak stated: 'He's still on the mend and we're still working to get him back. We got another week to assess how he's going to look going into this first game, but we're counting on him.' The team's decision to keep him on the 53-man roster and count on his availability portends positive recovery trajectory.
