STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jeanty's Week 1 breakout looks like a fluke; recent weeks show 2.3-2.9 ypc and higher stacked box rates.

Week 1's 102-yard, 23-carry performance (4.4 ypc) against Miami now appears a fluke rather than evidence of improved Raiders rushing attack; subsequent weeks show significant struggles: 24 combined rushes with Washington for 54 yards (2.3 ypc) vs LAC, then 56 yards on 19 carries (2.9 ypc) vs NO. Jeanty faces stacked boxes at higher rates than rookie Washington (34.8% vs MIA, 47.6% vs LAC, 31.6% vs NO compared to Washington's 14.3%, 33.3%, 20.0%), suggesting defensive game-planning targets the 2025 first-round pick and limits his efficiency.
