Head to head

This season Ashton Jeanty holds the bigger snap share, 66 percent against 36 percent.

This season Ashton Jeanty holds the bigger share of the carries, 55 percent against 39 percent.

Byes and availability

Ashton Jeanty is off in Week 13 and Jadarian Price in Week 11, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

3.0 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
