The Raiders are transforming running back Ashton Jeanty into a true three-down threat, with new head coach Klint Kubiak envisioning him as the offense’s secret weapon. After catching 55 passes for over 300 yards and five touchdowns last season, Jeanty will now be targeted on more intentional routes — digs, drags, and short-to-intermediate plays — forcing defenses to cover him and creating mismatches. Kubiak, who previously used RBs in passing schemes with the Seahawks, sees Jeanty as the key to unlocking the offense, especially without a clear top receiver. By expanding his role beyond the backfield and into the slot, Jeanty’s quickness and strength will become a constant headache for defenders, opening lanes for everyone else.
