Overview
- Jeanty said he gave up sugary snacks this offseason and focused on cardio and recovery to play longer and be more physical at running back.
- Raiders coaches and teammates have praised his leadership and training camp bursts, with offensive coordinator Andrew Janocko saying Jeanty has taken a clear leadership role.
- The team added Klint Kubiak as head coach, Andrew Janocko on offense, and center Tyler Linderbaum to stabilize the interior line, changes reporters say should create more running room.
- Jeanty’s rookie numbers showed heavy volume but efficiency problems—975 rushing yards on 266 carries and 3.7 yards per carry—which remain the central risk to a breakout.
- Analysts project a possible second‑year jump if Jeanty’s improved conditioning pairs with the Raiders’ scheme and line upgrades, but his per-touch efficiency will determine how large that leap can be.
