Ashton Jeanty's Struggles Continue Amid Raiders' Improvement

Ashton Jeanty, the Raiders' running back, is experiencing a decline in performance this season, averaging just 3.2 yards per carry. This comes despite the team's overall improvement, as evidenced by his limited carries in recent games.

In Week 6, Jeanty managed to score his first rushing touchdown of the season, but his performance has raised questions about his ability to avoid contact and gain yardage. He has struggled to find space, and in the team's recent loss to the Bills, he recorded only two carries for minus-5 yards in the second half.

Head coach Klint Kubiak hinted at a potential reduction in Jeanty's workload, suggesting that the team may rely more on other running backs, particularly rookie Mike Washington, who has shown better performance in limited opportunities. As Jeanty's struggles continue, the Raiders may need to reassess their approach to the running game.
