Raheem Mostert's Role to be Limited in Raiders Backfield vs Patriots
Raheem Mostert enters Week 1 in a reserve role behind rookie Ashton Jeanty. The veteran led the league with 18 rushing touchdowns in 2023, but a sharp decline in 2024 has left him fighting for touches in a crowded backfield. Mostert's explosiveness still gives him big-play potential, yet his usage is expected to be minimal against the Patriots, likely in the range of five to ten touches. Unless Jeanty is sidelined, Mostert profiles as a change-of-pace option rather than a fantasy starter. At this stage, he should be viewed strictly as a handcuff stash rather than a viable Week 1 play.
