Ashton Jeanty News
Thursday, October 8, 1:42 PM
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (ankle, foot) was added to the Week 5 injury report and was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday after he was a full-go on Wednesday, according to Jesse Merrick of Silver & Black Sports Network. Jeanty's status is now worth closely following leading up to Sunday's tilt on the road against the New England Patriots on Sunday. If Jeanty's ankle and foot injuries are serious enough to limit him or keep him sidelined entirely, rookie Mike Washington Jr. would become a must-start in fantasy as at least an RB2 option. The 22-year-old former sixth overall pick last year from Boise State has seen plenty of volume through the first four games of his sophomore season, rushing the ball 78 times for 264 yards (3.4 yards per carry) and no rushing touchdowns. The volume has made up for his lack of efficiency, and Jeanty has added 19 receptions on 24 targets for 165 yards and two receiving touchdowns. If his ankle/foot injuries are not too serious, he should be left in all starting fantasy lineups this weekend in Boston.

RJ Harvey News
Thursday, October 8, 9:10 PM
Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey has been central to the offense's passing attack, leading the team with 20 receptions. The second-year pro has capitalized on quarterback Bo Nix's willingness to throw it underneath, hauling in at least four receptions in each of his appearances. Harvey has been excellent; only he and wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (16) have hit double digits in catches, and he could remain frequently utilized if wideout Pat Bryant (ankle) misses Sunday's divisional matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. Some of the offensive flow may change with head coach Sean Payton slated for playcalling duties, but Harvey is trending positively despite limited production on the ground. Encouragingly, he's outpaced backfield mate J.K. Dobbins in snaps twice in three games.
