Overview

• Through two games, the No. 6 pick has 30 carries for 81 yards with no 50-yard outing, and his snap rate fell from about 86% in Week 1 to 56% in Week 2 as Zamir White and Dylan Laube saw more time.
• Offensive coordinator Chip Kelly compared the approach to NBA-style load management, stressing preservation over a 17-game season and saying usage has been influenced by game situations.
• Head coach Pete Carroll said Jeanty is being brought along and wants him on the field eight to nine more snaps to approach roughly 20 carries in a game in the coming weeks.
• ESPN data highlights broader problems in the ground game, with Las Vegas ranking near the bottom in attempts and rushing yards and sitting last in run block win rate at 62%.
• Jeanty publicly asked for more touches, while voices from James Harrison to Amy Trask urged the Raiders to run more, and Week 3 at Washington is being framed as a chance to shift the narrative.
