Has Jeanty been good to start his career? No. You've probably seen the Trent Richardson comparisons going around online. That said, he's also clearly playing through the pain, and the Raiders offensive line is (again) a bottom-5 group in RB rush yards before contact per carry. I'd like to think the 2025 NFL Draft's sixth overall pick will have better days ahead, but in Week 7 against the Rams' defense that has looked awfully good against pretty much everyone other than the Bills this season? Probably not. Also note that Jeanty has played 58 and 53 percent of the offense's snaps in the last two weeks — 20-plus touch upside does not look nearly as certain as it did a few short weeks ago.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jeanty's declining snap share and poor blocking environment dim Week 7 upside vs. strong Rams defense.

Has not performed well to start his career and is drawing Trent Richardson comparisons; playing through pain with a bottom-5 Raiders offensive line in RB rush yards before contact per carry; snap share has declined to 58 and 53 percent in last two weeks, making 20-plus touch upside far less certain than previously expected.
