Jeanty’s Return Could Shape Raiders’ RB Future | Las Vegas Raiders News

Ashton Jeanty’s ankle injury might not sideline him for long—Raiders GM John Spytek says he’s working hard and could return sooner than expected. With only three RBs on the roster, Jeanty’s availability is crucial; if he can’t go, they’ll likely promote Dare Ogunbowale or Roman Hemby from practice squad. Though he’s been sidelined since August 23rd and hasn’t practiced Tuesdays/Wednesdays, the team still has time before Week 1. Jeanty must regain game-ready form before being cleared, and with no official injury report yet, fans are relying on coach updates. The Raiders aren’t chasing a title this year, so they’ll be cautious with the young star. Meanwhile, fourth-round pick Mike Washington—showing preseason promise with over 160 yards—could serve as a reliable backup to ease Jeanty’s workload early in the season.
