Ashton Jeanty Erupts for 3 TDs, but Raiders Lose to Bears on Blocked Field Goal

Turnovers overshadowed a resurgent Raiders run game led by Jeanty’s rare rookie scoring feat.

Overview

  • The Bears edged the Raiders 25-24 after blocking Daniel Carlson’s potential game-winning kick in the final seconds.
  • Rookie Ashton Jeanty logged 21 carries for 138 yards with a 64-yard rushing score and added two receiving touchdowns.
  • Jeanty became the sixth rookie of the Super Bowl era with at least two receiving TDs and one rushing TD in a game and joined Bo Jackson, Marcus Allen and Raymond Chester as Raiders rookies with three scrimmage TDs in a game; he also passed Darren McFadden for second-most rushing yards by a Raiders rookie through four games, trailing only Josh Jacobs.
  • Las Vegas posted 240 rushing yards at 7.7 yards per carry and allowed zero sacks, a sharp change from earlier weeks when Jeanty was frequently hit at or behind the line of scrimmage.
  • Geno Smith threw three interceptions and finished with 117 passing yards, later taking blame as the Raiders fell to 1-3.
