Ashton Jeanty is shaping up to be one of the Las Vegas Raiders’ most promising investments heading into the upcoming NFL season. Head coach Pete Carroll is counting on the former Boise State standout to be a central weapon in his offensive scheme. And Jeanty has already made it clear: the team’s number one goal is firmly set.
Rookie minicamp is already underway, and the first signs of movement under Carroll’s leadership are beginning to take shape. Among the fresh faces on the field is the talented running back, who’s expected to build strong chemistry with his new quarterback, Geno Smith—a connection the Raiders hope will become a cornerstone of their offense.
In a recent conversation with the media, Jeanty emphasized that one of the team’s primary goals isn’t just about football—it’s about building a strong brotherhood. He highlighted the importance of forming a united locker room, believing that true success on the field starts with a tight-knit group off it.
“It’s a new brotherhood. We’re all welcoming each other, getting to know each other,“ Jeanty said via the Raiders team website’s Levi Edwards. “Pete Carroll was saying it yesterday, we’ve all got to be connected and build relationships, and that’s going to make us a better team and teammates.”
