Ashton Jeanty - Remains sidelined Wednesday
sleeper-rotowire+50 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Jeanty (ankle) remained sidelined at practice Wednesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports. Jeanty worked off to the side with trainers Tuesday, as he attempts to get past an ankle injury suffered Aug. 23. It's believed to be a low-ankle sprain for the second-year running back. Jeanty has 11 more days before the Raiders open the season at home against the Dolphins on Sunday, Sept. 13. He'll likely need to practice in some fashion next week to have a chance to play, otherwise Mike Washington and Dylan Laube would be in line to carry the backfield load for Las Vegas

Ashton Jeanty Misses Wednesday's Practice
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (ankle) missed practice again on Wednesday. He has been sidelined since injuring his ankle on August 23rd. While it's unclear if he'll be available for Week 1 against the Dolphins, rookie Mike Washington Jr. is expected to see significant work in the backfield regardless. Jeanty, a former first-round pick, showed promise last season with 975 rushing yards and 10 total touchdowns

Ashton Jeanty - Not in attendance for Tuesday's practice
sleeper-rotowire+50 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Jeanty (ankle) wasn't present for Tuesday's practice, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports. Head coach Klint Kubiak previously said Friday that he's "counting on" Jeanty to be available for Week 1 against the Dolphins, but the second-year running back will need to get back on the practice field before fantasy managers can have more reassurance that he'll be ready to go for the start of the season

Ashton Jeanty Remains Sidelined at Practice
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (ankle) remained out of practice Tuesday, according to Ryan McFadden. Jeanty hasn't practiced since suffering a sprained ankle on Aug. 23 when he landed awkwardly while diving for a pass. The injury isn't expected to be a long-term issue, but there still isn't a firm timetable for his return. Head coach Klint Kubiak said Friday that Jeanty was "on the mend" and that the Raiders were counting on him while continuing to assess his availability for the season opener. Tuesday's absence doesn't necessarily signal a setback, but Jeanty is running out of practice time before Week 1. Rookie Mike Washington Jr. has been working with the first-team offense while he's out. Jeanty rushed for 975 yards as a rookie and finished with 1,321 yards from scrimmage and 10 total touchdowns. His practice participation later this week should provide a better indication of his Week 1 status

Ashton Jeanty Avoids Stint on Injured Reserve
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (ankle) was not placed on injured reserve prior to the 53-man roster deadline on Sunday, according to Sam Warren of The Athletic. Given that an IR stint carries a minimum four-game absence, the Raiders' decision to keep Jeanty on their 53-man roster suggests that he'll be able to play in some or all of the team's first four games this season. Whether he'll be able to play in Week 1 remains unclear, although the team has been quite optimistic about his availability. Nevertheless, fantasy managers will want to monitor his participation levels in practice leading up to Week 1. Managers should also monitor the Raiders' roster moves. They only have three running backs on their roster right now, so if they sign or claim another one, it could be a sign that Jeanty might not be ready to go. If he does suit up for the season opener, he'll rank as a strong RB1 option against a Miami Dolphins team that has plenty of question marks on both sides of the ball

Klint Kubiak: We're counting on Ashton Jeanty for Week 1
The Raiders wrapped up their preseason games on Thursday night and running back Ashton Jeanty’s status will be one of the team’s focal points as they turn their attention toward Week 1. Jeanty sprained his ankle last weekend and the team has not shared much detail about the severity of the injury or the outlook for when he will be back on the field. Head coach Klint Kubiak stayed the course on that during a Friday videoconference with reporters, but he did make it clear that the team’s plans include having the 2025 first-round pick in the backfield. “Still on the mend, still working to get him back ,” Kubiak said. “We’ve got another week to assess how he’s gonna look going into this first game, but we’re counting on him.” Fourth-round pick Mike Washington had a good camp and Kubiak said he will have a role once the regular season is underway, but the Raiders would prefer it to be a complementary rather than starring one

Predicting first-time NFL All-Pros at every offensive position: Caleb Williams, Jahmyr Gibbs among young stars
There were 11 NFL players whose stellar performance earned them inclusion on the Associated Press' All-Pro teams for the first time last season. That's nearly a quarter of the prior year's first and second teams that were turned over. With that in mind, CBS Sports explores which offensive players may be next to blossom and reach All-Pro status: Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert have yet to make an All-Pro appearance, so those are options for this category, but also not in the spirit of the exercise. The intended purpose is to project a player who has yet to reach his peak. Caleb Williams ' first season under head coach Ben Johnson was fruitful, but the encore should be even better if his offensive line protection holds up. Williams has a better understanding of the offense and has had more time to develop relationships with primary pass catchers Rome Odunze , Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland . The key for the USC product will be finding consistency while maintaining the ability to make downfield plays late in the down of which others are incapable. Six of the nine quarterbacks who were named All-Pros over the past five years were first-round picks. Williams was the No. 1 overall selection in the 2024 NFL Draft . Jahmyr Gibbs is the running back most likely to be named an All-Pro who has not already been so. Although the team signed Isiah Pacheco in free agency, the trade of veteran David Montgomery feels like Gibbs taking ownership of the role in the Motor City. The franchise is hoping the arrival of new offensive coordinator Drew Petzing can re-instill some of the magic that departed with Johnson. Gibbs has accounted for 1,800-plus all-purpose yards in each of the past two years. A candle is still lit for Ashton Jeanty, and while the trio of Quinshon Judkins , Breece Hall and De'Von Achane have battled injuries, they are more than capable of ascending to this level. As you're reading this, Arizona's Jeremiyah Love is dealing with a high ankle sprain, but he has three-down capabilities, and Arizona is clearly content giving him the bulk of the carries. Feature backs may be returning to the NFL. There have been at least a dozen 1,000-yard rushers in each of the past four seasons. There had been only two such seasons dating back to 2015. Of the nine running backs named All-Pros over the past five years, eight were taken in the first or second round; Kyren Williams ( Rams ), a fifth-round pick, was the exception. The only 6-foot-4 All-Pro receiver over the past five years was Tampa Bay's Mike Evans . Drake London would buck that trend. The former USC Trojan is entering his first season with Kevin Stefanski as head coach. Aside from tight end Kyle Pitts and London, Atlanta's pass catchers are Jahan Dotson , Olamide Zaccheaus and third-round pick Zachariah Branch . If London puts together a full season -- as opposed to the five games he missed last season -- then he may finish closer to the 158 targets he accumulated in 2024; in that season, he finished fourth in receiving yards. Thirteen of 17 All-Pro receivers have been taken in the top 100. When exploring the four who were not ( Stefon Diggs , Puka Nacua , Tyreek Hill and Amon-Ra St. Brown ), two likely would have been taken earlier if not for off-field concerns (Hill) and injuries (Nacua). The Texans ' Nico Collins and the Giants ' Malik Nabers are a few others who fit the mold of a first-time All-Pro. There is one less mouth to feed in Chicago's offense with DJ Moore traded to Buffalo, but wide receivers Luther Burden III and Rome Odunze may eat away at a portion of those newfound targets. Colston Loveland tallied 58 receptions for 713 yards and six touchdowns last season. Will new opportunities lead to the requisite statistics for him to ascend to All-Pro status? Green Bay's Tucker Kraft , Cleveland's Harold Fannin Jr . and Indianapolis' Tyler Warren are also worth consideration for the list. San Francisco's George Kittle is the only All-Pro tight end over [... truncated ...]

Ashton Jeanty - Being counted on for opener
sleeper-rotowire+50 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Jeanty's ankle injury is being monitored in advance of Week 1, but per head coach Klint Kubiak the Raiders are "counting on him," Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official website reports. The extent of the injury Jeanty sustained at Sunday's practice session has not been revealed, but Kubiak's comments provide reason to believe the Raiders will have their top running back available for the season opener against the Dolphins. Jeanty will have over two weeks to rest and recover before the campaign gets underway, and should he encounter any hiccups Mike Washington remains next in line in the Las Vegas backfield
