Ashton Jeanty is expected to play a big role for the Las Vegas Raiders next season. On Saturday, the running back spilled the beans on his all-time Mount Rushmore of NFL RBs during an interview with Fansided.
Surprisingly, Jeanty left out Dallas Cowboys icon, Emmitt Smith, and late Cleveland Browns Hall of Famer, Jim Brown, on his list of the top four running backs who played in the league.
