Jeanty's ankle injury likely short-term; weak receiving competition keeps RB1 status intact.

Ashton Jeanty's ankle injury is expected to be a Grade 2 low ankle sprain with a 3-6 week window, but he has a chance to be active Week 1 or 2. The consensus is that it won't be a long-term issue. Despite Mike Washington Jr. excitement, Washington didn't enter the league with a high-end receiving skill set; his 5.5% target rate falls well behind Jeanty's from 2025 (14.0%). Without somebody to challenge his full workload, Jeanty should still be in RB1 consideration.
