Ashton Jeanty’s Jersey Number Choice Revealed—And It’s Not What Fans Expected

Ashton Jeanty’s Jersey Number Choice Revealed—And It’s Not What Fans Expected

So, the Las Vegas Raiders just pulled the trigger on Ashton Jeanty with the No. 6 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft — and if you’re wondering whether he’ll keep his college jersey number, well, brace yourself. He’s sticking with No. 2, but snagging that digit wasn’t as simple as showing up and grabbing it off the rack. Turns out, the veteran kicker Daniel Carlson had been rocking that number like a badge of honor, making this a little game of roster chess behind the scenes. What does this say about Jeanty’s mindset? That he’s not just ready to run — he’s ready to take ownership of everything he touches, down to the number on his back. After a record-breaking year at Boise State and a Raiders squad desperate for a jolt to their ground game, this pick feels less like a gamble and more like the franchise’s long-awaited blueprint for a new era. But here’s the real question nobody’s asking yet: Can Jeanty’s explosive style turn the Raider backfield from a last-place lament into a high-octane powerhouse? Because if he pulls that off, the silver and black just got a whole lot more dangerous—and that jersey number is going to be legendary.
