Ashton Jeanty's fantasy stock plummeted after his preseason debut more than a week ago. After Saturday's game against the San Francisco 49ers, the Las Vegas Raiders' rookie running back's stock should surge once again.
Jeanty, the No. 6 overall pick by Las Vegas in the 2025 NFL Draft, finished his first preseason game against the Seattle Seahawks with -1 rushing yards on three carries. On Saturday against the 49ers, the rookie from Boise State looked a lot more like the Heisman runner-up he was last year, trucking his defenders en route to a much more productive outing.
Here's what to know about Jeanty's performance in his second preseason outing:

Ashton Jeanty highlights
Jeanty's biggest play of the day came on his 13-yard rush, his longest play of the day.
The rookie trucked nickel cornerback Deommodore Lenoir and nearly broke through safety Ji'Ayir Brown's tackle with a stiff arm before Brown took him down.

Jeanty's monster rush was the Raiders' longest play on the ground in their second preseason game.
He also scored his first touchdown later on in that drive, punching it in from the 1-yard line through a couple of would-be tacklers to give Las Vegas its only touchdown of the game.
