The Las Vegas Raiders got some tough injury news about star tight end Brock Bowers ahead of their Week 1 clash against the Miami Dolphins.

Without Bowers, even more of a load could fall on the shoulders of second-year running back Ashton Jeanty, who is  expected to be good to go after dealing with an ankle sprain in training camp. 

The 2025 sixth-overall NFL Draft pick returned to practice this week and is coming off of a rookie season in which he carried the rock 266 times for 975 yards and five touchdowns while adding another 346 yards and five TDs through the air. But as a team, the Raiders finished just 3-14, “earning,” the first-overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft and using it on someone they hope will become their franchise cornerstone in Fernando Mendoza. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Jeanty’s 1,321 yards from scrimmage as a rookie are the most by a Raider in the franchise’s storied history. With that being said, can you name the rookies with the most yards from scrimmage in a season for each NFL franchise?

Good luck!
