Sources close to the Seahawks’ training facility confirm that rookie running back Ashton Jeanty has been quietly doubling down on his vision training—spending hours on pitch-specific eye drills and reaction exercises designed to amplify instincts at top speed. Coaches are buzzing that his MRI-like peripheral awareness could morph Jeanty into one of the most explosive first-year talents this side of the NFL.
Veteran teammates are already raving about his instincts. “You throw it anywhere near the seam and he’s there before anyone knows what happened,” says an offensive lineman. If Jeanty’s next-level field vision holds up when pads come on, Seattle may have unearthed the league’s ultimate RB3—one who forces defenses to rethink everything.
