Ashton Jeanty Injury Update: Sunday 8/23/26

UPDATE: According to reports, Jeanty suffered a sprained ankle.

Worrying news if you’re a fan of the Las Vegas Raiders. RB Ashton Jeanty suffered an apparent knee injury in practice on Sunday and was helped off the field by the medical team.

According to reports, the entire Raiders team took a knee and said a prayer after the incident. That is never a good sign, especially when it’s regarding a knee injury.

Jeanty rushed for 975 yards last year as a rookie, averaging 3.7 yards per carry. He also added 346 receiving yards and scored a combined 10 touchdowns. The second year back was projected as a late first-round, early second-round pick in fantasy football ahead of the new season. Hopefully the injury isn’t serious, but if it is, his season could be in doubt.

Stay tuned to DK Network for the latest updates on his injury.
