The Raiders are hosting the Chargers on Monday night for an AFC West matchup. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Los Angeles is favored by 3.5 points and this game carries a total of 46.5 points.
Below, I have featured my favorite Ashton Jeanty prop to consider from this contest.
Best Ashton Jeanty Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Ashton Jeanty O 17.5 Carries (-111)
After selecting Jeanty with the No. 6 overall pick in this past NFL draft, the Raiders gave the rookie a true workhorse role in Week 1. In the 20-13 road win over the Patriots, Jeanty rushed 19 times for 38 yards and a touchdown while logging an elite 79.2% of the snaps. The rookie’s 19 carries were 86.4% of the running back carries for Las Vegas, as no other back for the Raiders had more than three rushes.
While Jeanty only produced 2.0 YPC, Las Vegas came out on top in this season opener with the back seeing huge volume. He should continue to handle a massive role all season as an elite prospect out of Boise State. Jeanty averaged a ridiculous 6.4 YPC during his three-year college career, and he is the highest drafted running back since Saquon Barkley in 2018.
The Raiders should heavily feed Jeanty on a weekly basis, especially against the Chargers, as Los Angeles appears to be a prime matchup to attack on the ground this season after yielding 5.8 YPC to the Chiefs in Week 1. Las Vegas’ main offensive game plan should be to run the ball with Jeanty in this spot.
