Raiders starting running back Ashton Jeanty will be listed on the active roster for Sunday’s matchup against the New England Patriots, according to ESPN. The player, who has been dealing with an ankle/foot issue, was previously tagged as questionable but has now cleared to play.

Jeanty’s status had been a point of concern for the Raiders’ front office and coaching staff, as his ankle/foot injury had cast doubt on his availability for the game. The update confirms that he has recovered enough to participate in the upcoming contest. As the team’s primary ball carrier, his presence on the field will be a key factor in the Raiders’ offensive strategy.

The Raiders’ offensive scheme relies heavily on Jeanty’s ability to establish the run and create opportunities for the passing game. With the Patriots’ defense known for its aggressive run game, Jeanty’s health and performance will be closely watched by both teams and their supporters. His participation could influence the balance of the game and potentially tilt the outcome in favor of the Raiders.

Moving forward, Jeanty’s role will be pivotal as the Raiders look to secure a win against the Patriots. Fans and analysts alike will be eager to see how the ankle/foot injury impacts his performance and whether he can maintain his usual productivity against a formidable opponent.
