Ashton Jeanty's Week 1 Status Looking Positive for Raiders

Ashton Jeanty, running back for the Las Vegas Raiders, is on the mend from a right ankle sprain and could potentially participate in the team's Week 1 game against the Miami Dolphins.

Jeanty returned to practice on Tuesday, working alongside trainers. General manager John Spytek indicated that Jeanty is in a favorable condition, a sentiment echoed by rookie head coach Klint Kubiak, who expressed optimism about Jeanty's chances of playing.

Despite not practicing on Wednesday, the fact that Jeanty has not been placed on injured reserve suggests he may be available for the season. If he is unable to play, rookie Mike Washington Jr. is poised to step in, having shown promise during the preseason.
