Jeanty took 21 carries for 138 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for 17 yards and two more touchdowns in Sunday's 25-24 loss to Chicago. He also lost a fumble.
Jeanty's early fumble fortunately did not earn him a benching -- which coaching staffs have been known to do when young players display ball-security issues -- as he went on to produce his best game so far in the NFL. It was a welcome sight from the sixth overall pick in this year's draft, who failed to average over 4.0 yards per carry in any of his first three outings. With a signature performance under his belt, Jeanty's fantasy managers can start him with confidence heading into next Sunday's tilt against Indianapolis.
