ankle sprain (even though we don't know if it's a low or high sprain) that should have Jeanty back in much less time... he also didn't practice in the week following the injury... The smart move (for the Raiders and Jeanty managers) would be to sit out Week 1

Ankle sprain clouds Jeanty's Week 1 availability; Washington Jr. emergence limits upside.

Ankle sprain suffered in practice; Raiders hopeful he'll be ready for Week 1 opener but he didn't practice in the week following the injury. Rookie Mike Washington Jr. has emerged in preseason with 168 rushing yards on 23 carries (7.3 YPC) and likely carved out a role regardless of Jeanty's return timeline. The source recommends sitting Jeanty out Week 1 against Miami; even if he plays, he cannot be counted on for a workhorse role.
