Las Vegas Raiders offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak said running back Ashton Jeanty will continue to be a significant contributor to the team after the rookie received only two carries in the game against the New York Jets.
Kubiak addressed Jeanty's limited involvement following the matchup, emphasizing that the running back remains a big part of the offensive plan. The coach's comments come as Jeanty, a highly touted draft pick, has seen his role fluctuate in recent weeks.
The Raiders' coaching staff has faced questions about the distribution of carries in the backfield, with Jeanty's snap count and touches drawing scrutiny from observers. Kubiak's public backing signals the organization's continued confidence in the young player's long-term value to the offense.
