Raiders have discussed giving Ashton Jeanty a week to heal

Las Vegas has internally discussed giving Ashton Jeanty a week off at some point to recover from his ankle and foot injuries, Dan Graziano reports. Jeanty wants to continue playing. The team believes Mike Washington Jr. could handle the lead role if it decides to rest Jeanty.

Related Players: Mike Washington Jr., Dylan Laube, Brock Bowers, Tre Tucker, Kirk Cousins

Fantasy Impact: 

Washington is a priority contingency pickup if he's still on waiver wires anywhere. If Jeanty misses a game and Washington handles the lead workload, he could jump into RB2 consideration. Laube would have deeper PPR FLEX appeal if his receiving work expands. Keep Jeanty in starting plans while monitoring his availability; the report describes a possible future rest game, not an announced absence against Buffalo.
