Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty made his NFL debut in Week 1 against the New England Patriots, but it wasn't very exciting.
Jeanty did find the end zone, but he finished with just 38 yards on the ground and had only two catches on two targets for four yards.
Not all of that was on Jeanty, though, as the blocking upfront left a lot to be desired. The fact that Jeanty got 21 touches (two receptions, 19 carries) shows the team very much trusts him right out of the gate.
All in all, we'd call it a middle-of-the-road debut for the Boise State product. Here's a look at his full stat line.
