Jeanty (ankle/foot) not spotted at Friday practice
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty is dealing with ongoing ankle and foot injuries, leading to limited practice and questionable status for upcoming games, though he has continued to play through the pain.
- Backup running back Mike Washington is emerging as a valuable contingency option and should be rostered in all formats due to Jeanty's injury concerns, despite limited standalone fantasy value.
- Jeanty’s recent performances have shown struggles in rushing yards but strong receiving work, maintaining his status as an RB1 in fantasy leagues primarily because of his volume in the passing game.
- Jeanty has had multiple injury scares during games but has often returned to play, indicating resilience but also highlighting the need for close monitoring of his health.
- Washington has demonstrated potential with explosive plays, including a recent touchdown, but remains limited in workload as Jeanty continues to lead the Raiders backfield.
