Silver And Black Pride on Ashton Jeanty
From the article
he's caught literally every other pass that's come his way to be 13 for 16 with 97 receiving yards and two touchdowns through three games...Jeanty has faced the second-highest percentage of stacked boxes (38.1%) among qualified running backs in the NFL...I genuinely think he re-injured his ankle in New Orleans and didn't have the agility to make the cuts that we've seen from him in the past.
STACKED’s take
Jeanty's 13-for-16 receiving line and stacked-box rates support lead-back role despite ankle concerns.
Jeanty has caught 13 of 16 passes for 97 yards and 2 TDs through three games, making him 2-1 as a receiver despite three drops against the Chargers. The source notes he faced the second-highest percentage of stacked boxes (38.1%) among qualified running backs, with weekly rates of 34.8% (MIA), 47.6% (LAC), and 31.6% (NO), compared to Washington's 14.3%, 33.3%, and 20.0% respectively. The source believes Jeanty re-injured his ankle in New Orleans and lacked agility for cuts, which is being misconstrued as bad vision; if the lead back isn't 100%, Washington has earned more carries, but the source expects Washington's efficiency to decrease with more touches and attention.
