Can the Raiders get their run game on track in New Orleans?

The Las Vegas Raiders are preparing for their Week 3 NFL matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Despite holding the worst yards-per-carry average in the league, the Raiders continue to prioritize running the football as they head into New Orleans.

Running back Ashton Jeanty suffered an apparent leg injury during the second half of the Raiders' victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on September 20, 2026. Jeanty had to be helped off the field following a tackle, though he was later seen walking with guard Spencer Burford.
