Raiders optimistic Ashton Jeanty will play Week 1

Klint Kubiak was asked if he was optimistic on Ashton Jeanty being able to play Week 1 vs. Miami Dolphins.

His answer: “Yes,” with a sly grin.

Related Players: Mike Washington Jr., Dylan Laube

Fantasy Impact:

Jeanty has not been cleared, but multiple team decision-makers are now expressing optimism about his Week 1 availability. Washington remains the direct contingency and could retain a complementary role even if Jeanty is active.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty (ankle) not practicing Tuesday

Raiders return to the practice field after the roster cutdown deadline. Still no Ashton Jeanty.

Fantasy Impact:

We're inside two weeks until the Raiders first game, so there's time for Jeanty to get back on the practice field, but fantasy owners should probably have a backup plan at this point. The team has made it obvious they love Washington Jr., the rookie they drafted this past spring, and if Jeanty can't play Week 1, it really looks like Washington could step right in as their RB1.

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty not placed on IR

Of note: the Raiders did not place RB Ashton Jeanty on IR so clearly they feel he’ll be ready to play within the first four weeks of the season.

Related players: Mike Washington Jr., Dylan Laube

Fantasy Impact:

He's still not a lock for Week 1 at this point, but it's at least a bit of good news for owners, and reinforces it's not a long-term injury for Jeanty. Fantasy owners may want to have a backup plan in place, though, and if he's still on your wire after your draft, pick up Washington, who looks like he would be a big factor if Jeanty were to miss time.

Raiders monitoring RB Ashton Jeanty's Week 1 status, but still "counting on him"

Levi Edwards

Aug 28 · 1:17 PM EDT

Klint Kubiak said they’re still monitoring Ashton Jeanty’s status heading into Week 1, “but we’re counting on him.”

Related Players: Mike Washington Jr., Dylan Laube, Dare Ogunbowale

Fantasy Impact:

Kubiak stopped short of confirming that Jeanty will play, but his wording moves the situation in a slightly positive direction. Washington remains the clear contingency and should be rostered everywhere, while Jeanty is a far more risky bet at the 1/2 turn than even one week ago.
