Ashton Jeanty

Ashton Jeanty is the RB11 in fantasy points per game with 18.7 touches and 73.8 total yards per game. His offensive line has crushed his rushing output, but his passing game usage has been saving him weekly. Jeanty has eight targets in each of his last three games. Since Week 9, he has had an 18.3% target share with 33 receiving yards per game, 1.30 yards per route run, and a 12.8% first-read share. Among 55 qualifying backs, he ranks tenth in missed tackle rate and 35th in yards after contact per attempt. Jeanty will have to lean on volume and his receiving prowess again this week. Since Week 9, Denver has remained a nasty run defense, allowing the third-fewest rushing yards per game, the lowest explosive run rate, the 12th-lowest missed tackle rate, and the 12th-lowest yards after contact per attempt.

Ashton Jeanty rushed for 31 yards on 15 carries in the Raiders 31-14 loss to the Chargers. He caught 6-of-8 targets for 30 yards.

Fantasy Impact

Jeanty continues to struggle to find any running room behind a poor offensive line. The rookie running back remains the lead back and continues to see work in the passing game. Jeanty will face an elite Broncos' defense in Week 14.
