Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty rushed 10 times for only 27 yards in Sunday’s loss at New England. Dating back to last season, Jeanty has now gone seven straight games without a rushing score.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty (ankle, foot) is active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He was listed as questionable after missing Friday’s practice. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said this morning that Jeanty is dealing with plantar fasciitis that “flared up a little bit” this week. He comes with elevated risk but would be tough to leave out of Week 5 fantasy lineups.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty (ankle, foot) is "hopeful" to play vs. the Patriots today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "But it’s not definite and he’ll work out pregame to see how he’s feeling," Rapoport adds. Jeanty seemingly hurt his foot on Thursday and then didn't practice on Friday. He's listed as questionable, and the Raiders elevated RB Roman Hemby from the practice squad as insurance. We'll look for further updates on Jeanty and get Vegas' inactives around 11:30 am ET.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty (ankle, foot) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Patriots. Jeanty was a full-go on Wednesday, but he was limited and had the foot added to the injury report on Thursday. Then he didn’t practice on Friday. It looks like Jeanty hurt his foot on Thursday, leaving him truly uncertain for Sunday’s game. We’ll update his status as we learn more and get Vegas’ inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday. Jeanty’s absence would turn rookie Mike Washington into the Raiders’ lead back and a fantasy starter.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty ran 15 times for 58 yards (3.9 yards per carry) in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Chiefs. He made up for it as a receiver, catching 6 of 8 targets for 68 yards with a long of 28. That added up to 126 scrimmage yards and 18.6 PPR points. Jeanty played 56 of 84 snaps (66.7%) and ran 31 routes. He briefly left late in the third quarter with a leg injury but returned on the next drive.

It wasn’t quite the same level of production this week for Ashton Jeanty, who’s coming off a 32.7 PPR point Week 1 performance that landed him an RB4 ranking to open the season. The second-year RB handled 23 carries for 102 yards and added 4 catches on seven targets for an extra 15 yards, leading to an RB22 ranking pending Monday Night Football with 10.3 PPR points

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty operated as the clear lead back in Sunday’s win over Miami. He topped rookie Mike Washington Jr. in snap share (73% to 19%), carry share (70% to 21%), and route rate (61% to 16%). The result? An outing with 102 rushing yards, plus 6 catches, 45 receiving yards, and 2 receiving scores.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty (ankle) put in a full week of practice and is off the final injury report. The August 23 injury that sounded potentially season-ending winds up costing Jeanty 0 games. It’s possible that his workload is scaled back a bit on Sunday, especially with how well RB Mike Washington played this preseason. But Jeanty would be nearly impossible to keep out of Week 1 fantasy lineups in a great spot as a 3-point home favorite vs. the Dolphins.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. He's clearly set to play vs. the Dolphins this weekend and might be ready for something very close to his usual role. Barring a negative report between now and kickoff, Jeanty belongs in Week 1 fantasy lineups.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty (ankle) will practice on Wednesday, HC Klint Kubiak said. We'll get his participation level tonight and track his status through the rest of the week, but Jeanty now looks likely to play in this weekend's opener vs. the Dolphins. How much work he'll be ready to handle remains uncertain. Jeanty will be three weeks removed from his ankle injury come Sunday.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty has yet to return to full practice since suffering his ankle sprain, and the team won't commit to him being ready for the regular-season opener. But HC Klint Kubiak said "yes" (and smiled) Wednesday when asked whether he's optimistic for Jeanty's chances of playing against Miami.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty was working off to the side with trainers at Tuesday's practice, according to The Athletic's Sam Warren. It's the first time Jeanty has been seen on the field since his ankle injury nine days ago.

Raiders HC Klint Kubiak talked about using RB Ashton Jeanty as a workhorse back in May. Since then, Jeanty suffered an ankle injury and RB Mike Washington has impressed in preseason action. That might have Kubiak rethinking his backfield plans.

Raiders HC Klint Kubiak offered little clarity on RB Ashton Jeanty's ankle injury after Tuesday's practice. "He's on the mend," Kubiak said, via ESPN's Ryan McFadden. "Again, Ashton got hurt in practice, and the whole team took a knee. That says a lot about him being on the mend and counting on him. Really excited about getting him back. I'm a huge believer in the power of prayer."

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty's status for the season opener vs. the Dolphins is "still up in the air," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Jeanty's ankle sprain is "believed to be more low than high," per Rapoport, but it's not a long-term injury. "There is a chance that Ashton Jeanty may not be on the field for Week 1," Rapoport adds.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty is believed to have sprained an ankle in Sunday's practice, according to insiders Ian Rapoport and Adam Schefter.

It's excellent news after what sounded like a potential season-ending injury.

But QB Kirk Cousins got the start and is still the favorite to open the regular season as Vegas' starter, HC Klint Kubiak confirmed after the game.
