The Facts:
With a career-high 150 yards on 22 carries, including the 80-yard touchdown run that stood up as the Raiders' final points, Jennings has 340 yards on 57 carries, averaging 6.0 yards per carry in his last three games. When Darren McFadden return, it's become clear he'll have to wait his turn.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Jennings is second to Terrelle Pryor in rushing with 480 yards. McFadden, who had a hamstring injury early in the Philadelphia game which made Jennings the lead back, has 352 yards in seven games. "(Jennings has) been a guy we've called on to come in and run the ball and he's done a great job at it,' HC Dennis Allen said. "As he continues to run the ball like he's doing, he's going to continue to get opportunities to run the ball.' Jennings, signed as an unrestricted free agent after averaging 2.8 yards per carry in Jacksonville last season, has resisted any and all urges to take credit for anything other than doing his job. But it appears Jennings' job duties are expanding.
