Welcome to the team - RB Ashton Jeanty

Jeanty has all the tools to be an elite back and with his head screwed on right I think the only thing that could stop that from happening is injury.

Josh Jacobs comparisons or I wish we had drafted Skattebo stuff is laughable.

Neither one of those dudes take that handoff 64yds to the house.

For reference, Josh Jacobs housed it against Seattle a couple of years ago for a walk off win.

Still didn’t get the Raiders a win
 
We saw some of the special from Jeanty finally.

Teams will key on hitting him before he hits that second gear. That's the key for Henry and it applies to Jeanty too. Otherwise he's slippery out of tackles and has burst/explosion to his runs.

He's still learning and it shows. But the corner is being turned.

Biggest thing we can do is improve 1st level blocking. Keep him from getting hit behind the line. Less concentration of blocking downfield by the OL. Let wrs and tes handle that.

Him high stepping out of that last tackle on his way into the endzone was what did it for me. I thought for sure he was going to get wrangled down, but Byard just slipped off him like he was covered in baby oil. He ain't Jenny no mo'.
